The Pittsburgh Steelers have seemingly had one of the best defenses in the league during the tenure of Mike Tomlin.
One of the many great defensive players who has come through Pittsburgh to fortify the defense is former Defensive Player of the Year and star edge-rusher T.J. Watt.
While on The Pat McAfee Show Friday, Tomlin was jokingly asked by host Pat McAfee if the team could sign future Hall of Fame defender and the older brother of T.J. Watt, J.J. Watt.
“We don’t have enough cash for two Watts,” Tomlin said with a smile.
"We don't have enough cash for two Watts."

It would be a wild scene if the Steelers made the move to sign the oldest Watt brother.
While he is missing a Super Bowl ring, J.J. Watt has accomplished everything there is to accomplish as an edge defender in this league.
The three-time Defensive Player of the Year is set to stroll into the Pro Football Hall of Fame when his time comes.
In regards to the current state of the Steelers, this 10-3 squad has a chance to be a dark-horse Super Bowl team this year.
While all eyes are on the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills in the AFC, the Steelers look like a very underrated team.
This Sunday afternoon, the Steelers will face the NFC East-leading Philadelphia Eagles on the road in a hostile environment.
If Mike Tomlin, T.J. Watt, and Co. strolled into Philly and secured the victory, it could be a huge momentum-builder for this team as the playoffs draw closer.
