The Pittsburgh Steelers took their time in contract discussions with superstar pass rusher T.J. Watt. While the situation took a lot longer to figure out than fans would have liked, the end result was what everyone was hoping to see. Watt agreed to a massive three-year, $123 million contract extension this week.

While some analysts, like Nick Wright of FS1, ripped the Pittsburgh Steelers’ decision to give T.J. Watt a three-year, $123 million extension that includes $108 million fully guaranteed at signing.

Watt's production did not jump off the page last season, but his influence in creating opportunities for his teammates is still apparent.
