Myles Garrett is miffed that T.J. Watt was miffed about the Browns edge rusher winning defensive player of the year in 2023 over Watt.
The Steelers edge rusher, who didn’t attend NFL Honors, wrote on social media “nothing I’m not used to” when the award went to Garrett in February.
Garrett said Wednesday that he “never complained about the trophy not being at my house” and that he thinks Watt “shouldn’t be feeling two ways about knowing” Garrett is the winner of the award for last season.
Watt responded to Garrett’s comments but declined to get into a war of words.
“I have respect for everybody in the league. Obviously, he’s a guy who has been a top pass rusher in the league for a long time,” Watt said Wednesday, via video from Chris Adamski of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. “But I don’t compete directly against him. It’s our team versus their team, and at the end of the day, I just want the Pittsburgh Steelers to come out with a win.”
Watt has 7.5 sacks this season and Garrett seven. Bengals edge rusher Trey Hendrickson leads the league with 11.5.
