While reports from Monday night made it known that the Pittsburgh Steelers and safety DeShon Elliott had agreed to a two-year contract extension, that was no indication as of Tuesday that the Steelers were all that close to working things out with unsettled pass-rusher T.

Bleacher Report’s James Palmer says it is partially due to Myles Garrett’s new $40 million per year inflating the market, while Watt does not want to sign a deal too early before other top edge rushers could ink their new deals.

The Steelers still haven't signed T.J. Watt to an extension but one insider expects a good will gesture from the team when a deal is reached.
