Steelers Tweet Out Creepy Step Brothers Photoshop After Officially Adding Derek Watt
By Michael Luciano
The Pittsburgh Steelers decided to add some extra Wattage to their roster by adding former Los Angeles Chargers fullback Derek Watt, who will link up with his brother TJ Watt, a star edge rusher for Mike Tomlin's defense.
The Steelers couldn't resist making a "Step Brothers" joke at the Watt's expense, and they did so by photoshopping the faced of Derek and TJ overtop of Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly.
"Did we just become teammates?"

Maybe not the most comforting Photoshop in the world, but the pun was too good to pass up.
While Derek has become one of the best fullbacks in the game, TJ 's 42 pressures show just how much he has improved since the Steelers used a first-round pick on him in 2017. The only Watt brother not currently in the Steel City is Houston Texans superstar JJ Watt, and we wouldn't put it past Bill O'Brien to consider trading him.
Watt brothers in Pittsburgh: FB Derek Watt is signing with the #Steelers, joining brother TJ, per @RapSheet. Maybe call Bill O'Brien to check if JJ is available ?♂️

One Watt brother hasn't been enough to get Pittsburgh back to the postseason, but hopefully two will be enough to do the trick for Tomlin in Pittsburgh.
