Shifts to IR
Watts (knee) was placed on injured reserve Friday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Watts sustained a knee injury in the Giants' Week 17 win over the Colts and was unable to practice all week, making his shift to IR on Friday no surprise. The 27-year-old appeared in just five games for the Giants this season, recording seven total tackles over 83 defensive snaps. White Watts is sidelined for the Giants' Week 18 divisional matchup against the Eagles, expect Elijah Garcia to serve as the team's top reserve defensive end.

The Steelers are rebooting under center in 2024, moving on from Kenny Pickett to some combination of Russell Wilson and Justin Fields. Whoever claims the title of starter will get to throw to WR George Pickens.
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Watts spent the first three years of his career in Minnesota before joining the Bears for the 2022 campaign. He racked up 35 tackles (18 solo), including one sack, during his lone season in Chicago but joined the Steelers on a one-year deal during the offseason. The 27-year-old has appeared in every game in the last three seasons but will likely have to compete for a starting role on Pittsburgh's defensive line to begin 2023.
