The Ravens (9-5) covered the spread against the Giants on Sunday and will now turn their attention towards the Pittsburgh Steelers and All-Pro linebacker, T.J. Watt.
Watt was forced to exit the Steelers 27-13 loss to the Eagles on Sunday after suffering an ankle injury while rushing the passer. Watt, who leads the Steelers with 11½ sacks, was checked out in the medical tent and did not return.
After the game, Watt said he was in “wait-and-see” mode for that game. The 30-year-old former defensive player of the year came away with a rolled ankle that he didn’t think was a serious injury.
On Monday, Pittsburgh head coach Mike Tomlin approached the injury with optimism that Watt would be available for Sunday’s gigantic matchup.
