The Pittsburgh Steelers selected Watt in the first round with the 30th overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft. T.J. is the youngest of the three and has emerged as one of the top defenders in the NFL. Watt has earned nominations for three Pro Bowls, two All-Pro Teams, and NFL Defensive Player of the Year during his four-year career. He was named AFC Defensive Player of the Year in 2020 after registering 15 sacks and 41 quarterback hits. His older brothers, J.J. and Derek, also play in the NFL. J.J. plays for the Arizona Cardinals while Derek plays alongside his brother in the Steelers squad. For me it was super important in my development to play with J.J. and Derek to get beat up on a lot when I was younger, T.J. told the Associated Press in September. But (it taught me to) just kind of be resilient and continue to grow and learn from my experiences playing up with those guys.  Last season, the three Watt brothers shared a special moment as they played in the same game when the Steelers took on the Texans. According to Yahoo Sports, the game last season was the second time since 1927 three brothers played in the same NFL game.
