    They can restructure some contracts if they need more money for free agency.

    Not if he magically keeps playing like he has since people on here said he was done 4 years ago.
    This is why I pay no attention to the people that say Watt is done. Just as many said Heyward was done 4 years ago. LoL

    The last two seasons with injuries are concerning for a guy who's brother fell off right about this time. I'm not sure Watt is totally cooked, but I totally understand why people think he might be. Yeah, people said the same about Heyward and he came back strong... Watt will have an opportunity to do the same. I hope he does, because we paid him too much money to get 7 sacks, even if he still produced in the TO department.

    You are correct we don't know, but to compare him to his brother is not really fair, they both played a different position, and both have totally different body types.

    Not necessarily a different position, but just the same position in different styles of defense. Edge rusher in a 4-3 is a different way to play edge rusher than in a 3-4, but its still an edge rusher. JJ is a good bit bigger, but soft tissue issues tend to be something that is genetic.

    TJ had a collapsed lung due to dry needling. Not exactly a soft tissue injury. More like an oops! with the training/medical staff. Sh!t happens, but his was not a soft tissue injury that took him off the field.


    We can agree his latest contract was a bit high for a player of his type with his high mileage. But his injury last season was not some Watt specific, age related issue.

    Great! Now we can watch him running down the field chasing after losing the point of attack for 2 more seasons!

    But at least we can now sleep tight knowing he can put food on the table!

    And we won't have to hear him cry about missing meals for his starving family.

    Welp, you don't do dry needling just for the fun of it. He was obviously dealing with something and thought that therapy would help.
