South Fayette’s Justin Watson savoring his third Super Bowl victory
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) – While the Pittsburgh Steelers weren’t in the Super Bowl, there was one local player on the winning team. KDKA-TV’s Bob Pompeani spoke with Kansas City Chiefs’ WR Justin Watson’s parents who said they are pinching themselves over the big win.
This is Watson’s third Super Bowl trophy in his 6-year career. He won in 2023 with the Chiefs and prior to that, his first Super Bowl victory was with Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2021.
Watson’s family sent KDKA-TV pictures overnight from down on the field celebrating the big win on Sunday evening. He’s a proud South Fayette native who led South Fayette High School to a WPIAL championship.
After South Fayette, Watson went on to the University of Pennsylvania where he won two Ivy League championships. The Buccaneers signed him to a contract in 2018 after being drafted in the fifth round of the 2018 NFL draft.
Watson didn’t appear on the scoresheet during the Buccaneers’ Super Bowl victory over the Kansas City Chiefs. However, in the last two big games with QB Patrick Mahomes, Watson has six catches for 66 yards.

A hunter in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, was charged after nearly shooting a person, according to police.
Karen Gaus, 42, was arrested and charged with recklessly endangering another person and disorderly conduct in connection with the incident, officials said.
The Susquehanna Regional Police Department said in a news release that officers responded to Beattys Tollgate Road in East Donegal Township on Nov. 29 for a hunting complaint. Police said a homeowner was outside their residence when they heard multiple gunshots and a bullet passing by.
Officers began investigating and found Gaus nearby, who admitted that she was hunting and fired two shots at a deer in the direction of the victim’s home, according to the news release.
Gaus, according to court documents, is awaiting her preliminary hearing, which is scheduled for Jan. 12, 2026.
Pennsylvania’s firearms deer season ends on Saturday. It opened on Nov. 29 and included two Sundays: Nov. 30 and Dec. 7. Earlier this summer, Gov. Josh Shapiro signed a bill that reversed what state lawmakers called the “outdated” ban on Sunday hunting.
Before the firearms deer season began, the Game Commission said it expected more than 500,000 hunters would be out and about.
The New York Giants have released former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud, the team announced. McCloud was on their practice squad.
McCloud was released from the Atlanta Falcons earlier this season after being sent home by head coach Raheem Morris in a mysterious exit.
“I sent him home,” Morris said. “Excused absence — home. Working through some things right now that are private with my young man, and we’ll figure those things out as we go.”
The former Falcons wide receiver room has gone through ups and downs. They fired wide receivers coach Ike Hilliward in Week 3, a coach that McCloud is close with from his time with the Steelers. Hilliard coached McCloud for two seasons.
Morris said that McCloud’s issues have nothing to do with the fact that Hilliard was fired.
“This is between Ray-Ray, the organization and us and dealing with those things,” Morris said. “Nothing to do with that. It is just more a football thing and what we got to get straightened out.”
The former Steelers wide receiver is a valuable slot receiver who can also be a key cog on returns, but has floated around the NFL over the years trying to find a long-term home.
