All-Pro linebacker T.J. Watt caused a stir over social media by posting a picture in which he flashed two fingers and left plenty open to interpretation about his future with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The since-deleted post on Instagram included no text or explanation. Does it mean he’s at peace with the Steelers, or is he essentially saying “peace out” to the team that selected him with the 30th overall pick of the 2017 NFL Draft?

Taken a step further, is Watt channeling his inner Myles Garrett? You know, the defensive end who demanded a trade from Cleveland only to sign a four-year, $160 million extension with the Browns.

Watt, 30, is entering the final season of a four-year, $112 million extension he signed in 2021. He will receive $21.05 million in 2025.

A seven-time Pro Bowl selection, Watt recorded 11.5 sacks last season to reach double digits for the sixth time in his eight-year career. He also registered an NFL-best six forced fumbles in 17 games.

Watt has 108 career sacks in 121 games (all starts) with Pittsburgh. He was the NFL Defensive Player of the Year in 2021 when he had a career-high 22.5 sacks to match the official league record (since 1982).
