TJ Watt has been getting nothing but praise since he arrived in the league for his dominant play, but that changed this weekend.
The Steelers were on the road against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday looking to secure a huge victory when viewers noticed something that Watt did.
During a rushing play by the Browns, Watt was trying to make a play in the backfield as he came from the left side, but he got blocked by offensive lineman Joel Bitonio. In response, Watt could be seen grabbing at his leg.
Fans are now calling him dirty for his actions.

In that game, Watt had six combined tackles and 1 sack.
The Pittsburgh Steelers not only lost that game but have since fired offensive coordinator Matt Canada as well.
Pickett has struggled in recent weeks and reached a low in Week 11 against the Cleveland Browns, throwing for just 106 yards. In the last five games, he’s thrown just one touchdown, and since taking over as the starter last season, has thrown just 13 touchdowns and 13 interceptions.
Now the team is 6-4 and struggling to stay relevant in the AFC.
