Trent Jordan "T. J." Watt (born October 11, 1994) is an American football outside linebacker for the Pittsburgh Steelers of the National Football League (NFL) He played college football at the University of Wisconsin, and was drafted by the Steelers in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft. His older brothers are J. J. Watt of the Arizona Cardinals and Derek Watt who is a teammate of his on the Steelers. He was a finalist for the NFL Defensive Player of the Year award in 2019 and 2020. In 2021, Watt signed a 4-year extension worth over $112 million including $80 million guaranteed, making him the highest paid defensive player in the NFL.[1]

College career

Coming out of Pewaukee High School, Watt was rated as a three-star recruit by various recruiting services.[2]

Watt started his collegiate career as a tight end recruit for the Wisconsin Badgers.[3] Watt's knee was injured in the 2014 season and he was in the recovery process until the middle of the 2015 season.[4] He did not play a game from October 2012 to September 2015.[5]

In July 2015, Watt was asked by head coach Paul Chryst to switch to a defensive position as a redshirt sophomore.[3] Badgers' outside linebackers coach Tim Tibesar recalled Watt's position change saying, "At that time, even though he was in his third fall at Wisconsin, it was kind of like having a freshman come in. You're trying to teach him for the first time how to play outside 'backer in our system."[6] After the fourth game of his junior season, he led the Big Ten conference in sacks.[3] In the Michigan State game, he was named the Big Ten Player of the Week and was given the Walter Camp National Defensive Player of the Week Award.[3]

During the 2016 season, Watt recorded 59 total tackles and 11.5 sacks.[7] Additionally, he recorded an interception and a defensive touchdown during the Badgers' game against Purdue.[8] Watt also received first team All-American honors by Sports Illustrated and second team honors by The Associated Press for his play during the 2016 season.[9] On November 29, 2016, Watt was named First Team All-Big Ten.[10] On January 3, 2017, Watt announced on Twitter that he would forgo his senior season and enter the 2017 NFL Draft.[11]

Professional career

Watt received an invitation to the NFL Combine as one of the top edge rushers in the draft and completed all the combine drills. Among linebackers, Watt finished second in the vertical jump and three-cone drill, tied for first in the broad jump (with Jabrill Peppers), and also tied for first in the short shuttle.[12] He attended Wisconsin's pro day, along with Dare Ogunbowale, Vince Biegel, Corey Clement, Sojourn Shelton, and six other teammates.[13] Green Bay Packers' General Manager Ted Thompson and Pittsburgh Steelers' head coach Mike Tomlin were among the 65 team representatives and scouts present for his pro day as Pittsburgh Steelers' linebacker's coach Joey Porter, Carolina Panthers' and New York Jets' outside linebackers coach Kevin Greene led Watt's positional drills. The majority of NFL draft experts and analysts projected Watt to be a late first round or second round pick . He was ranked the second best outside linebacker in the draft by NFLDraftScout.com, ranked the fourth best outside linebacker by NFL analyst Bucky Brooks, and was ranked the ninth best edge rusher by Sports Illustrated.[14][15] ESPN also ranked Watt the 44th best prospect available in the draft.[16]

Surprisingly, the Green Bay Packers, his home state team, chose to trade the 29th pick over selecting Watt despite the Packers' need to improve their pass rush. The trade with the San Francisco 49ers netted the Packers the 33rd pick (Kevin King) and the 103rd pick (Vince Biegel).[22]
