Steelers EDGE T.J. Watt highest-graded by PFF

Week after week, Pittsburgh Steelers fans got a treat watching outside linebacker T.J. Watt play. His 14.5 sacks drew all the national headlines but he was so much more than that in 2019. Watt was so good in fact he was the highest-graded edge in the NFL according to the formula used by Pro Football Focus.

Watt’s 14.5 sacks were the third-best in franchise history. Watt was the Steelers first-round pick in 2017 and he’s paid tremendous dividends since day one. Watt has made two consecutive Pro Bowls and in 2019 was named an All-Pro.
