T.J. Watt Calls Mike Tomlin ‘A Stand-Up Guy’ Whom He’s Never Seen Handing Out Envelopes

For the past few years, the most controversial topics for the Pittsburgh Steelers have been generated by former players, or soon-to-be former players. Outside of Ben Roethlisberger’s evidently newsworthy new ‘do, much of the past week has been driven by James Harrison’s claim that head coach Mike Tomlin once supplied him with an ‘envelope’ to help ease the burden of being handed a $75,000 fine.

With the Watt brother’s new television show debuting last night, understandably, T.J. Watt was subject to interview. And, necessarily, he was asked about the Harrison incident, even though that happened several years before he was drafted.
