🏈 Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk thinks T.J. Watt’s age and recent injury history could be the big holdup in contract negotiations.
“Yeah, I mean that’s more the common sense around the league. Why would the Steelers be waiting so long? Why would there be this sense that there’s a gap? You never pay a guy for what he’s done. If you pay guys for what they’ve done, you’re asking for trouble,” Florio said. “And you know, the cliche used to be that the NFL is a what-have-you-done-for-me-lately league. It’s not that either. It’s what are you doing for me right now and what do I expect you to do for me tomorrow? That’s what guys get paid on. They don’t get paid on the past, they don’t get lifetime achievement contracts. They get paid based on what we think this guy brings to the table right now, this year, next year and maybe one year beyond that. And that’s the key.”
