It looks like the Pittsburgh Steelers will once again be without T.J. Watt this week. That’s bad on its own, but Nick Herbig could also miss Week 16. That would leave the Steelers very shorthanded at edge rusher. Rookie Jack Sawyer would start in that scenario. The Steelers are playing the Detroit Lions, who have one of the best offenses in the league. Therefore, Sawyer could be in for an uphill battle. Former Steelers corner Joe Haden had some advice for him, though.
“I know having my man [Sawyer] in there, it’s gonna be his first start,” Haden said Friday on his Deebo and Joe podcast.
