T.J. Watt Will Play Against Rams

one year ago

Pittsburgh Steelers outside linebacker T.J. Watt (heel) was removed from the Week 7 injury report on Friday and will play on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams. Watt missed practice on Thursday with a minor heel injury, but the 29-year-old All-Pro pass-rusher is feeling much better and returned to a full practice on Friday. The five-time Pro Bowler currently leads the NFL with eight sacks and he also has accumulated 15 tackles (12 solo), seven tackles for loss, 15 QB hits, four passes defensed, two forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries (one returned for a touchdown) in just five games. Watt is an elite defender in the NFL and is a must-start in IDP fantasy formats going against an immobile quarterback in the Rams' Matthew Stafford.
