Fantasy Impact:

Over the last two seasons, Watt has established himself as one of the league’s best linebackers. In 2019, he recorded a career-high 14.5 sacks to go along with 55 tackles. In his three-year career with the Steelers, he’s totaled 177 tackles and a whopping 34.5 sacks. He’s cemented himself as a top-10 option in IDP leagues and fantasy owners can expect much of the same from Watt in 2020.
