Shockwaves in the NFL: Insider Drops Explosive Details on T.J. Watt’s Contract Talks
— Pat McAfee (@PatMcAfeeShow) June 9, 2025
Watt enters the final season of his four-year, $112 million extension, which will pay him slightly over $21 million this fall.
That figure now appears significantly below market value for elite edge rushers. Cleveland Browns star Myles Garrett currently holds the record for defensive players with his $40 million annual contract.
The timing creates complexity for Pittsburgh’s front office.
With the edge rusher market still developing and other prominent players awaiting new deals, Watt’s representatives likely want to see how those negotiations unfold before finalizing terms.
