The Associated Press PITTSBURGH — T.J. Watt is back. Sort of. The Pittsburgh Steelers outside linebacker returned to practice on Wednesday, two weeks after he had surgery to repair a partially collapsed lung following a dry needle treatment. Watt was a limited participant on Wednesday.

Still, having Watt’s familiar No. 90 on the practice field is a good sign for a team that hopes to have him back in time for the playoffs at the latest, should Pittsburgh qualify for the third straight year. “TJ is one of our leaders, so I love having him around,” quarterback Aaron Rodgers said. “Not sure what his status is going to be, but just his presence is good for the team.” Watt was named to his eighth consecutive Pro Bowl on Tuesday.
