The Pittsburgh Steelers and T.J. Watt were just tryig to enjoy their bye week over the weekend.
A long stretch to come, Pittsburgh desperately needed to unwind after an eventful five games.
Well, hopefully the rest of the team was fairly unbothered because T.J. Watt surely wasn't:
Say Watt?
Okay, maybe Watt deserved this one just a little. I get he was trying to go for the ball, but you can't be out there just punching cats square in the chest. The whole situation was probably blown out of proportion a bit, but of course, the league office stepped in. (As if they had nothing better to do).
Unfortunately for Watt, the fines didn't stop there though:
Keep It On Teej
Now this one is a lot harder for me to agree with here. Yes, I understand the whole "player safety" initiative, (although how do 18 games, over-sea ventures, and the idea to add to more games look in that light) but this was the game-ending sack. Watt literally won the contest with this play, all but sending the Ravens back to Baltimore.
So more than $25,000 in fines is nothing to sneeze at, but luckily for Watt, his most recent contract was valued at over $100 million.
Meaning, I don't think he's losing any sleep.
