The Pittsburgh Steelers and superstar edge rusher T.J. Watt are having a tough time in contract talks, which could lead to a trade in the worst-case scenario. If that plays out, Watt reportedly has his eye on the Detroit Lions.

The Pittsburgh Steelers reportedly aren't close to signing Watt to a contract extension after he stayed away from the team through its mandatory minicamp that wrapped up on June 12.

The Pittsburgh Steelers did not have T.J. Watt at their mandatory minicamp this week. Head coach Mike Tomlin did not seem overly concerned about his future with the team, stating they are in constant communication with one another.
