T.J. Watt to Miss Third Straight Game; Expected Back for Next Meaningful Match

Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt will miss his third consecutive game Sunday due to a punctured lung sustained from a dry needling mishap. Despite the absence, NFL Network reports that Watt is expected to return for Pittsburgh's next "meaningful" game. This could be the AFC Wild Card round if the Steelers clinch the division this weekend, or the Week 18 Ravens-Steelers matchup if the AFC North title is still on the line.
