The Pittsburgh Steelers can breathe a huge sigh of relief.
Reigning Defensive Player of the Year T.J. Watt will miss 6 weeks but he does not have a completely torn pec, which would have likely cost him the season.
Doctors determined this afternoon that Steelers’ LB T.J. Watt does not surgery on his torn pectoral and he now is expected to miss about six weeks, per source.

He could be back October 30 in Week 8 when Pittsburgh plays the Philadelphia Eagles in PennsylMania.
Watt had some humor on Twitter with the news.
