The NFL’s Top 100 Players of 2025 list has been slowly released over the summer, with Nos. 20-11 being announced this week.
Outside linebacker T.J. Watt was the latest Steeler to be ranked on the list, coming in at No. 11.
The 30-year-old logged 61 total tackles, 11.5 sacks, six forced fumbles, and 19 tackles for loss in 2024. He was named to his seventh career Pro Bowl and made the AP All-Pro second team. He also recorded his 100th career sack that season, now with 108 over his eight years in Pittsburgh.
Watt signed a three-year, $123 million extension in July with the Steelers. He was the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history (in average per year) up until Micah Parsons’ record-setting four-year, $188 million deal with the Packers on Thursday.
