Steelers land 2 defenders on Pro Bowl roster

Pittsburgh didn’t get many players named to the 2024 Pro Bowl games.

The NFL released the rosters for the 2024 Pro Bowl games on Wednesday and two members of the Pittsburgh Steelers defense made the cut. Outside linebacker T.J. Watt and safety Minkah Fitzpatrick were both voted onto the team.

For Watt, this is his sixth Pro Bowl in seven NFL seasons as he once again leads the NFL in sacks. Watt joins Los Angeles Chargers Khalil Mack and the Jacksonville Jaguars Josh Allen as the three representatives in the AFC.

Fitzpatrick was named to his fourth Pro Bowl. This is despite missing multiple games this season with a knee injury. We understand that often times the Pro Bowl vote is more about name recognition but we are happy to see Fitzpatrick’s name on the list regardless of the reason.
