Pittsburgh Steelers get another pessimistic update on T.J. Watt contract talks

The Pittsburgh Steelers and star outside linebacker T.J. Watt are still not close on a contract, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, who says the deal could drag out much longer.

“They’re far apart right now, and there have been other teams that have mulled the idea that maybe they would approach the Pittsburgh Steelers about a trade,” Schefter said on “Unsportsmanlike.” “The Steelers have zero intention of trading him, but something has to give. You can’t have it both ways. You can’t say, ‘We want to keep this guy’that badly and then be far apart in the contract.”
