About this listen
Reese, Kmac, Pam and Alex discuss TJ Watt’s extension with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Yesterday, TJ Watt agreed to a three-year, $123M extension — $41M per year, making him the highest-paid non–quarterback in NFL history. The deal includes a whopping $108M fully guaranteed, surpassing previous records set by Myles Garrett and Ja’Marr Chase. Watt sat out mandatory minicamp amid contract talks but is now set to report to training camp at St. Vincent College next week. Watt beats out Garrett and Chase in average annual value, cementing his status as the league’s premier pass rusher.
This extension signals the Steelers intent to aggressively pursue a Super Bowl, joining busy moves like adding Aaron Rodgers, DK Metcalf, and Jalen Ramsey.
T.J. Watt has secured a record-breaking, fully-guaranteed mega-deal to stay in Pittsburgh, ending his offseason holdout. Is Watt the best defensive player in the NFL? How far will Pittsburgh go this year?
