Looking for extension Watt has yet to take part in the team portions of the Steelers' training camp practices, Brooke Pryor ESPN.com reports. Impact While coach Mike Tomlin relayed Saturday that Watt has been "working hard with our trainers," defensive coordinator Keith Butler noted that he doesn't expect the team's star outside linebacker to practice fully until he comes to terms on an extension with the Steelers. To date, Watt -- who finished second to Aaron Donald in Defensive Player of the Year voting last year after recording 15 sacks -- has been in attendance during training camp but has been limited to participating in some individual drills. For his part, team president and owner Art Rooney II said he hopes to get a new deal done with Watt before Week 1. "We'd like to get T.J.'s deal done, if we can, before the start of the season," Rooney said earlier this week. "That's the goal."
