Signs with Big Blue
The Giants signed Watts off the practice squad to the active roster Tuesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Watts was released from the Patriots' injured reserve Oct. 2 due to an unspecified injury, but he was healthy enough to catch on with the Giants' practice squad after working out with Big Blue on Oct. 15. Now on the active roster, the 2019 sixth-round pick will provide rotational depth at defensive end behind starters Elijah Chatman and Rakeem Nunez-Roches. Watts appeared in 15 regular-season games for the Steelers in 2023 and finished with 15 tackles (six solo), including 0.5 sacks.

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.
