**Mystery Surrounds Future of Steelers’ Star TJ Watt**
Pittsburgh Steelers’ standout edge rusher, T.J. Watt, caused a buzz on social media with a cryptic post. The four-time All-Pro player shared a photo of himself flashing the “peace” sign on his Instagram story without any caption. This led fans to speculate about the possibility of the Steelers trading their star player.
Watt, aged 30, is approaching the final year of his four-year, $112 million contract extension signed in 2021. With other edge rushers like Maxx Crosby and Myles Garrett securing lucrative extensions recently, Watt might also be seeking a new deal.
Having tied Michael Strahan’s record for most sacks in a season when he last extended his contract, Watt aims for another successful negotiation. Despite facing injury setbacks in the past, Watt delivered strong performances, leading the league in sacks and forced fumbles in recent seasons.
The Steelers boasted a top-three pass-rush win rate in the NFL in 2024, underscoring Watt’s impact on the team. The speculation around Watt’s future intensifies with his social media post, leaving fans and pundits eager to see how the situation unfolds.
