T.J. Watt: limited Thursday on rest and calf

THE FACT. T.J. Watt was limited in Thursday's Steelers practice under a non-injury rest designation that also lists a calf, according to NFL.com and Pittsburgh's official injury report. It was his second straight limited session ahead of Sunday's game against the Saints in Paris.
THE VERDICT. Rest designations on a Thursday before an overseas game are maintenance, not alarm. IDP: start him with confidence, because Watt remains a weekly must-start edge in every format. Check Friday's report anyway. If the calf pushes him to a did-not-practice, revisit. Redraft: no change for anyone streaming against Pittsburgh, since the pass rush stays intact.
