Watt had gone radio silent on social media over the last few months, but posted a picture of a workout with fellow outside linebacker Nick Herbig that broke that silence. Then, shortly after the agreement came into place for the Steelers and Watt, the superstar pass rusher took to Instagram to make a post declaring he’s back.

Reports have indicated that Pittsburgh Steelers superstar T.J. Watt has become the highest non-paid quarterback in NFL history. Watt has reached an agreement on a three-year, $123 million extension. His $41 million per year average annual value will again be the highest for a non-quarterback in the NFL for the second time in his career.

Hours before signing a record-setting extension, a training photo of Steelers' T.J. Watt and Nick Herbig began making waves on social media.
