The Pittsburgh Steelers are working through contract negotiations with the face of the franchise, TJ Watt. Of course, those talks have become much more problematic ever since Myles Garrett completely reset the edge rusher market.

Last season with the Steelers, Watt played in all 17 regular season games. He racked up 61 tackles, 11.5 sacks, six forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries, and four defended passes. Those numbers make the Pittsburgh superstar one of the best defensive threats in the NFL.

The Pittsburgh Steelers and star outside linebacker T.J. Watt are still not close on a contract, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, who says the deal could drag out much longer.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have made a lot of big and bold moves this offseason that have dramatically changed the look of the roster. From unexpected trades to key free agent signings, the front office has kept fans on their toes with one surprising decision after another.

ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter weighed in on the situation recently during a radio appearance. He also sent a stern warning to Pittsburgh about Watt's contract situation. Schefter's response comes about the possible scenario of Watt holding out into the regular season if the two sides can't come together on a new deal before.

Pittsburgh Steelers edge rusher T.J. Watt has been the subject of conflicting trade rumors as the offseason wears on.

The T.J. Watt contract extension saga seems stuck in neutral. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports the Steelers and Watt are “far apart.” It seems unlikely that negotiations are taking place, or that Watt is willing to negotiate.

Pittsburgh Steelers edge rusher T.J. Watt reportedly wants to be the NFL's highest-paid non-quarterback given his production for the team over the last eight seasons, but the franchise may not agree with those demands.

T.J. Watt’s contract situation with the Steelers remains unresolved as a new insider update sheds light on where things stand.

Pittsburgh Steelers star pass-rusher T.J. Watt is seeking to become the highest-paid non-quarterback in the National Football League. The talented pass-rusher skipped mandatory minicamp and is reportedly unhappy with his current contract situation.
