Steelers Place T.J. Watt On Reserve/COVID-19 List
By: KDKA-TV News Staff
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) - The Steelers have put T.J. Watt on the reserve/COVID-19 list.
The Steelers just got Watt back Sunday against the Bengals after he was out with a hip and knee injury. Even with Watt's help on defense, the Steelers still fell 41-10.
Watt tested positive so unless he can test out of the protocol, he won't be playing against the Ravens, ESPN's Brooke Pryor reported.
T.J. Watt has a positive test, not a close contact, so unless he can test out of the protocol quicker than Roethlisberger, he's out vs. Ravens. https://t.co/jB9ocir1qJ

In the nine games he's started this season, he has 12.5 sacks, four pass defenses, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.
The Steelers take on the Ravens next at Heinz Field on Dec. 5.
