J.J. Watt wants to come to Pittsburgh.
Not to play, but rather to visit his brother T.J. and Steelers Head Coach Mike Tomlin.
Tomlin recently spoke about the Steelers fascination with sibling.
The Steelers have had several pairs of siblings over the past few seasons.
T.J. and Derek Watt, Cam and Connor Heyward, Terrell and Trey Edmunds, Carlos and Khalil Mack and now Nick and Nate Herbig.
Tomlin says that football is a “genetic” game and that brothers likely have similar skill sets. He also talks about the environmental aspect of siblings growing up together and how that impacts development.
“I imagine the basketball games in the Watt backyard, for example, 20 years ago were highly competitive,” said Tomlin.
Seeing the video, the recently retired JJ Watt responded to the tweet calling Tomlin an “incredible man” and that he’ like to visit the Steelers facility sometime.
Tomlin responded, “Would love to have you come to the facility. You are welcome anytime.”
There has been no word on Derek Watt’s contract status, he remains a free agent, but it appears at least two Watts will be in the building sometime soon.
