The Pittsburgh Steelers and T.J. Watt are stuck at a crossroads with their contract negotiations as Watt enters the last year of his deal. After Myles Garrett’s market-shattering $40 million per year deal with the Cleveland Browns in March, that threw off the calculus for Watt’s deal.

Over the last few months, most of the talk surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers has surrounded Aaron Rodgers. With Rodgers now officially signed, all attention has been turned to the team's current contract situation with superstar pass rusher T.J. Watt.

The Pittsburgh Steelers and T.J. Watt both want the same end result of a contract extension but simultaneous negotiations between other teams and their star pass rushers add to the complexity of the Steelers' dealings.
