Along with dealing with an ankle injury, Pittsburgh Steelers All-Pro outside linebacker T.J. Watt is also battling a lingering right thumb injury. Sideline reporter Melanie Collins revealed the news during Wednesday’s Steelers-Chiefs game.

T.J. Watt went down with an injury in the team's 27-13 loss to the Eagles in Philadelphia, adding insult to injury on a day to forget. The one-man wrecking crew put his stamp on the game, but it's the injury that will leave the lasting image, especially as the Steelers inch toward the playoffs.

Mike Tomlin kept the door open for each of his injured players to suit up for Saturday's game against the Ravens during Monday's press conference. That list of players includes T.J. Watt, the Steelers star pass rusher who injured his ankle near the end of Pittsburgh's Week 15 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.

T.J. Watt‘s status for his return to the field has been uncertain following an injury sustained during a recent game. Questions about the star linebacker’s availability have surfaced as the Pittsburgh Steelers look ahead to their next NFL game.

During the Christmas Day broadcast of the Pittsburgh Steelers' Week 17 game against the Kansas City Chiefs, it was revealed that star edge rusher T.J. Watt is dealing with a thumb injury that was not listed on the injury report this week.
