Steelers coach Mike Tomlin fully expects to see Nick Bosa when the 49ers arrive at Acrisure Stadium on Sunday.
in 2021, Watt agreed to a four-year extension worth $112 million. After one practice on Friday, Watt recorded two sacks, one tackle for loss and five quarterback hits in an upset victory on Sunday.
"We got a deal done at the 11th hour," Tomlin said of his experience with Watt."He showed up in the stadium, and he was T.J. Watt that day. That's what those guys do. They show up and they are who they are, and so we expect him to be there as a prudent approach to take. And if he's going to be there, we know the type of player that he intends on being, and so that's something to be dealt with.
Watt wound up winning the 2021 AP Defensive Player of the Year that season and tied the single-season sack record with 22.5. Bosa is coming off a DPOY season of his own, earning it with 90 pressures and a league-leading 18.5 sacks. Like his coach, Steelers left tackle"We're expecting him to be in the stadium, so that's what we'll lean on," Moore Jr. said Monday."... he's a capable defender. We're going to treat him with respect.
