TJ Watt Signs Massive New Contract with Pittsburgh Steelers
Historic Contract for the NFL Linebacker
Details of the Deal
TJ Watt has signed a five-year contract extension with the Pittsburgh Steelers worth 122.1 million, with 80 million guaranteed. The contract includes a four-year, 112 million extension and a 35.5 million signing bonus. This makes Watt the highest-paid non-quarterback in the NFL.
Watt's previous contract, signed in 2021, was for four years and 112.011 million, with a 35.593 million signing bonus. His new deal represents a significant increase in both value and guaranteed money.
The Steelers' decision to sign Watt to a long-term extension is a testament to his value to the team. Watt has been one of the NFL's most dominant pass rushers in recent years, and he is a key part of the Steelers' defense. With Watt under contract for the next five years, the Steelers can now focus on building a competitive team around him.
