Zeise Live: Steelers' T.J. Watt wants more years in next contract?

Post-Gazette sports columnist Paul Zeise reacts to the day in Pittsburgh sports news live around 5 p.m. Eastern. He gives his thoughts on a report from ESPN's Adam Schefter that the number of years in his next contract has become the sticking point in contract negotiations with T.J. Watt. Should GM Omar Khan and Mike Tomlin give into the demands of a player who will turn 31 this season? Or hold firm and not commit to him for too long on a defense that already includes older players such as Cam Heyward, Jalen Ramsey and Darius Slay Jr.? Paul offers his thoughts on those questions, then tackles MLB All-Star week in Atlanta. What should we make of Oneil Cruz's second-round exit in the Home Run Derby on Monday night? And what can we expect from Paul Skenes as he start the game on the mound for the National League for the second year in a row? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
