Watt is just three weeks after returning from a torn pectoral and is now continuing to nurse a rib ailment. If Pittsburgh wants any chance at a late-season push for the postseason, they’ll need Watt on the defensive end. The Steelers would love to have him out there this week as they face the Atlanta Falcons, who boast the league’s fifth-best rushing offense at 4.9 yards per carry this year.
In 2022, Watt has 19 tackles, 1.5 sacks, four pass deflections, and a forced fumble in four starts. Keep an eye out for any updates on Watt heading into the weekend.
