The Pro Bowl Games will proceed without T.J. Watt, one of the NFL’s standout defensive players. The previous Defensive Player of the Year pulled out of the yearly event because of an injury.
Similar to numerous players, Watt experienced slight injuries towards the season’s conclusion, particularly affecting the ankle and thumb.
Kyle Van Noy of the Ravens will take his place. Watt, a crucial player on Pittsburgh’s defense and among the league’s best pass rushers, achieved his seventh Pro Bowl selection this season.
It may not be significant whether Watt can actually go or not. The Pro Bowl has lost its status as a prestigious accolade and is not regarded as seriously by players anymore.
