T.J. Watt officially declared for the 2017 NFL draft following his outstanding 2016 collegiate football season at the University of Wisconsin. Being among the best defensive players in his draft class, he was invited to the NFL Scouting Combine and participated in all of the drills.
Fourth-year GM Omar Khan said extending Watt will be a priority, via the "Pat McAfee Show‘s" Mark Kaboly. Watt, who said he wants to remain with the Steelers beyond 2025, joins Hendrickson and Micah Parsons as All-Pro edge defenders entering contract years.
NFL legend and three-time Defensive Player of the Year J.J. Watt outlined a condition for him to unretire and play for the Bengals.
To recap: Watt and his wife are minority owners of the English football club Burnley, currently standing third in the Championship table. All the way back in December, Burnley goalkeeper James Trafford asked Watt to come out of retirement and play for the Bengals.
