Pittsburgh Steelers star T.J. Watt just broke the bank. Forget the idea that the Steelers might not be able to afford him. Watt on Thursday has just become the highest-paid non-QB in NFL history, for the second time in his career,

Watt's extension will pay him an average of $41 million annually, putting him ahead of Bengals receiver Ja'Marr Chase ($40.25 million) and Browns pass rusher Myles Garrett ($40 million) in terms of the highest average annual salaries among non-quarterbacks.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have ‘no excuses’ to not win this season after the T.J. Watt extension, according to former NFL general manager Mike Tannenbaum.
