After a few days of speculation regarding his health, Pittsburgh Steelers fans now know what is going on with star pass rusher T.J. Watt. According to his brother and CBS broadcaster J.J. Watt, Watt suffered a partially collapsed lung while receiving dry needling treatment on Wednesday.
He had successful surgery on Thursday to correct the issue, and his timeline for recovery is unclear. It seems highly unlikely to play on Monday Night Football against the Miami Dolphins.
With Watt's situation now clear, it raises serious questions for the Steelers' defense both this week and, potentially, moving forward.
