The NFL world is currently wishing for the best for Steelers pass rusher TJ Watt.
Watt, arguably the league’s most impactful defensive player (outside of Aaron Donald, at least, in the minds of many), suffered a knee injury during Sunday’s preseason finale. He’s been ruled out of the contest.
Hopefully it’s nothing serious and we’ll see Watt back on the field for Week 1.
Until then, he can rest up with his wife.

TJ and Dani Watt were married earlier this year in a tropical ceremony.
The couple had been dating for several years. Dani played collegiate soccer.
She’s been an active presence around Steelers practices and games in recent years.
Hopefully we’ll see TJ Watt back on the football field in Week 1.
Until then, rest up.
