T.J. Watt

The Post-Gazette Sports’ Brian Batko reports that Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said he will not speculate as to whether EDGE T.J. Watt will attend training camp, but he “believes both sides want to get this deal done.”

Batko adds that the two sides have “been in communication throughout Watt’s minicamp absence.” It is in both parties’ interest to get a new deal done, but Watt’s firm stance is likely a tad unsettling for Steelers fans. The stalwart EDGE is understandably dead set on being paid handsomely. Players are scheduled to report for training camp on July 23rd.
