If Pittsburgh Steelers’ star edge defender and reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year TJ Watt has his way in 2022, the Steelers won’t be rebuilding anytime soon.
Watt, who appeared on the Associated Press’s Pro Football Podcast from radio row in Los Angeles Saturday, discussed winning his first-ever Defensive Player of the Year award and what the honor meant to him, but also addressed the future of the Steelers to host Rob Maaddi, stating that the Steelers won’t be rebuilding anytime soon.
Asked by Maadi where he sees the team going following the retirement of 18-year quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, Watt was quick to strike down any thought of rebuilding and going through a lost 2022 season due to the quarterback position.
