In today’s NFL, the pass rushers that are star-level players are some freakish athletes.
There’s Myles Garret in Cleveland, who looks like an alien that descended onto planet Earth to play football. Then there’s Micah Parsons in Dallas, who looks like he should be a skill guy offensively with his movement skills and overall athleticism.
Pittsburgh Steelers star pass rusher T.J. Watt might not fit in that discussion of freakish athletes on the edge, but what he does have going for him compared to some of the other more propped-up, well-thought of pass rushers is his overall football IQ and general intellect.
