[Rapoport] “TJ Watt is expected to play again this season”
31 comments
I’d say he’s out 3 weeks , this sucks
This just seems crazy to me lol. Watts are crazy though so I guess that makes sense.
I guess we’ll get to see a lot of Sawyer out there for a couple of weeks at least
Take the month, big fella. If we can get to the playoffs without you, it will be a nice shot in the arm.
“I hope TJ can avoid any injuries on the field this year”
(Monkeys paw curls)
Welp, that’s the season
Achane about to run a train on our run defense
It’s not like he was doing much this season anyways lol
As an Astros fan, I’ve seen the whole “medical staff are a bigger opponent than the other teams” thing before this year, I dunno if I can survive it happening again.
HIGHSMITH NEEDS TO BE IN EVERY PLAY FROM NOW UNTIL TJ GETS BACK
1-11 without TJ playing and a prime time game against a team that should be worse than us. We all know what’s abouta happen.
If this is the only “curse” Perna’s stupid wheel puts on us, so be it.
I don’t believe they Tyrod Taylor’ed our boy TJ. I’m just glad it seems like he will be ok.
Probably returns week 18 against Baltimore?
Not very promising. Steelers win more with TJ Watt in the lineup.
Dry needling treatment? So they punctured his lung during acupuncture or something?
This is the worst game to have such a stout run defender out injured.
Achane is licking his chops right now.
Can we make sure whoever did this to TJ is fired so they can’t do it again? Lol
I’ve had dry needling done in my shoulder/mid-back area. No clue how this would have resulted in a punctured lung unless someone FUCKED UP ROYALLY
Trainer who did this

Someone is so shitcanned and potentially in witness protection while being escorted out of Pittsburgh over this.
Steelers record is 1-11 when we play without Watt…get better soon buddy
JJ got real mad about breaking his record and ordered or performed the hit
Dry needling treatment? Wtf. First, do no harm.
Plz no. Let him be done., We need him next year
Wait It was from dry needling? What a schmuck of a therapist. That pisses me off. This happened from incompetence
No chance
how do you put a dry needle so deep that it punctures a lung? What a joke
Hoping he gets healthy soon. Ashamed it happened.
What I fear is this becomes the crutch that Tomlin needs to lean on as this season falls apart and now gives more excuses to the stans.
Maybe the nfl should stop doing the fucking dry needling shit eh?
Such an unnecessary injury because of some hoodoo BS that won’t do any good, but obviously can do bad.
I feel like yes I feel bad he was hurt for his loved ones but feel like its opportunity for Sawyer and Herbig . I feel like Highsmith should be put in Watts normal slot and leave Herbig where he is, or put Sawyer on the side 90 normally is
