Pittsburgh Steelers star TJ Watt became his family’s new sack leader on Sunday against the Chicago Bears.
Caleb Williams and the Bears had the ball at their own 10-yard line in the second quarter. Williams dropped back and felt the Steelers’ pressure in the pocket as he couldn’t find anyone open. He tried to run to his right to avoid Watt, but fumbled in the end zone.

TJ Watt has been the cornerstone of the Steelers defense for years. The Steelers selected the former Wisconsin standout 30th overall in the 2017 draft. Since then, he has earned four first-team All-Pro selections and seven Pro Bowl nods. The only season in which he failed to be selected as a Pro Bowler was his rookie season.
