    It's possible that Watt was at OTA's last week, is taking a week off, and will be back next week. He's not someone I'm worried about.

    TJ Watt is the least of my worries for this team. Him skipping OTAs is just not that big a deal to me anyways.

    As a team captain Watt is there for his teammates in 2024.
    Even when Watt was doing his "Hold-In" he was still there.




    This clip was posted by the official Pittsburgh Steelers social media account on 'X' (formerly known as Twitter). Within the first 24 hours of the video dropping, it had been viewed by over 245,000 people.

    Too bad he doesn’t show up for playoff games either.

    The Dallas HC was talking about Parsons missing their OTA's. He really was close to crossing a line, if not an OTA violation, one that would could make Micah pissed enough to create locker room issues. They are voluntary for a reason, to put expectations, hidden or not, would make me burn, lol. Sure its for a players benefit (especially a rookie or new player), but voluntary is just that. There has been some talk from the players about doing away with them, extending camp by a couple of weeks, and if agreed would start in 2025. I actually think it makes sense, especially if they go 18 games and remove a preseason game.

    Yeah I don't care. Watt has shown he will be showing up game day. Let the young guys get some reps

    Difference is Heyward is wanting to be a crying twat for contract reasons.

    I do not care if a vet is the, it's when you are doing it to be malicious is when I lose respect.

    Yep. He doesn't need the reps. Nor does Heyward. Without Watt this team loses. No other defensive player on this team can attest to that.




    [​IMG]

    Yes he has been in 3 playoff games in which they lost.

    Watt had 6 solo tackles, 2 assists, 1.0 sack and 1 fumble recovery in 3 games in the playoffs in his career.

    The defense in those contests got out played as a whole, shelled. Tomlins defense.

    Getting blown out by halftime in a wild card playoff game is certainly exciting

    If then yes, I’d be in favour. But otherwise it’s good as it is. Volunteer. Be there if you want.
