The Pittsburgh Steelers’ negotiations with T.J. Watt must clear hurdles regarding guaranteed money as well as the annual salary the superstar pass rusher will receive. Cleveland’s Myles Garrett shattered the edge rusher market when he landed $40 million per year with the Browns.

TJ Watt is expecting a big pay day when his current contract is extended later this offseason. However, Watt and the Pittsburgh Steelers appear to be in the weeds when it comes to the specific terms of a new deal.

Pittsburgh Steelers edge rusher T.J. Watt reportedly wants to be the NFL's highest-paid non-quarterback given his production for the team over the last eight seasons, but the franchise may not agree with those demands.
