Will the Steelers sign JJ Watt?

Here is where things get intriguing. First, TJ and Derek Watt will no doubt lobby the Rooneys and Mike Tomlin, plus their oldest brother as well. Secondly, whoever signs JJ Watt will spend lots of money. However, if JJ Watt wants to sign with Pittsburgh, I am sure he, Derk, and TJ will sit down with Primanti Brothers to discuss some numbers as well. Depending on the size of the deal they get from Primanti Brothers, is it possible JJ Watt decides to take a lower contract with the Steelers as opposed to other teams that might offer a contract. For now, we don’t know that answer.

What we do know is that prior to the conclusion of the 2020 NFL season, no one seriously thought JJ Watt could end up in a Steelers uniform in 2021. It’s still not a certainty. However, all three Watt Brothers do want to play together. With the offer from Primanti Brothers, certainly, when JJ Watt gets set to sign his new contract, it’s safe to say the Steelers will be on his shortlist of teams to play for in 2021. Fans may yet get to see JJ Watt on the field as a Steeler. Seeing the Watt brothers united is something Steelers fans want to see, plus it’s something the Watt brothers want as well.

It would not be much of a surprise to see JJ Watt sign a contract with Pittsburgh before the free agency skirmish is over. Certainly, no other NFL city is going to give the Watt Brothers their name on a successful restaurant franchise. Who would have thought Primanti Brothers could end up possibly changing an entire Steelers offseason. So whereas Pittsburgh is synonymous with Steelers football and Primanti Brothers, that may end up including all three Watt brothers before it’s said and done.
