The Pittsburgh Steelers agreed to a three-year, $123 million contract extension with linebacker T.J. Watt. The deal includes $108 million guaranteed at signing.

The Pittsburgh Steelers and T.J. Watt just made some NFL history with his new contract. With a $41 million annual salary, it is the highest non-quarterback contract per year in NFL history. That exceeds Cleveland’s $40 million per year deal with Myles Garrett.

PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Pittsburgh Steelers made star outside linebacker T.J. Watt the NFL’s highest-paid defensive player on Thursday, signing him to a pact that will keep the perennial All-Pro in black-and-gold well into his 30s.
