Watt is in the final year of a four-year deal with the Steelers this season.

He signed a four-year, $112 million deal after the 2021 NFL season.

His cap hit this year is $30.4 million.

Watt will be 32 years old when his next contract starts, wherever that contract may be.

The linebacker is without a doubt one of, if not the best defensive talent in the whole of the NFL.

In just eight seasons, Watt already has 108 sacks, 462 tackles, 33 forced fumbles, seven interceptions, and a touchdown.

He has made seven Pro Bowls, five All-Pro teams, and was named Defensive Player of the Year in 2021.

If he retired today, Watt would likely be considered to make the Hall of Fame.

Watt is going to command a lot of money when his next contract comes around.
