"With a strip sack of Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams in the end zone Sunday, the Pittsburgh Steelers' T.J. Watt, 31, surpassed J.J. Watt, 36, in career sacks. Watt's 115th sack, which bests J.J.'s total of 114.5, didn't just bring down the second-year quarterback -- it also turned into the Steelers' second touchdown of the day as Williams fumbled the ball, and edge rusher Nick Herbig recovered it for the score just 14 seconds into the second quarter of Sunday's game."
"And it's fitting that T.J. passed J.J. in this particular game, because his older brother is in the broadcast booth at Soldier Field on the call for CBS. T.J. and J.J. Watt are the only pair of brothers to each record 100 or more career sacks since 1982 when sacks became official, according to ESPN Research. With the second-quarter sack, T.J. Watt has seven sacks and three forced fumbles this season."
