Pittsburgh Steelers outside linebacker T.J. Watt has half a sack in the three games since he has returned from the Reserve/Injured List following pectoral and knee injuries. Considering he tied an NFL record with 22.5 sacks last year, that drop-off is pretty significant, yet the team is 2-1 in those games—even if in the one loss the defense allowed 37 points.
A first-round draft pick out of Wisconsin in 2017, Watt has been one of the most NFL-ready players the team has ever drafted, a day-one starter who has continually gotten better year after year, with no single stat better exemplifying that than his sack number going up every year.
