Pittsburgh Steelers pass rusher T.J. Watt passed an NFL legend in the best way possible. Watt not only exceeded his brother J.J. Watt's NFL sack total, but he did it on a touchdown-scoring play ... with his brother calling the game.
T.J. Watt has been playing in his older brother J.J. Watt's shadow since they both played for the Wisconsin Badgers. On Sunday, he finally surpassed the legend in his own family.
It was a Houston homecoming J.J. Watt will long cherish. Before calling Sunday’s game between his former Texans team and the Jaguars, the CBS Sports announcer, 36, shared a sweet on-field moment with 3-year-old son Koa at NRG Stadium, where Watt suited up for Houston for 10 seasons.
Koa could be seen smiling and running as his dad chased him, later pulling Koa in for a hug and turning him upside down. Watt, who played for the Texans for 10 seasons, noted that it was particularly special to see his son run on a place he'd spent so much time.
Sure, Steelers star pass rusher T.J. Watt is a four-time All-Pro and a former Defensive Player of the Year who has six sacks through 10 games this season. But that’s not the Watt we’re referring to.

T.J. Watt's defeated response after losing to the Bears proves he couldn't care less about making history on Sunday
T.J. Watt is never a happy camper after a loss, but his tone and tenor on Sunday were those of pure defeat. As he would say, it's just the same old stuff with the Steelers being unable to get stops. Which is almost ironic.
J.J. Watt had a message for Bears quarterback Caleb Williams after he led his team to a win against the Pittsburgh Steelers and his brother, T.J. Watt. The Bears have won four in a row.
JJ Watt, who called the Bears' win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, loved what he saw from Ben Johnson and his team.
