HOUSTON – Before the Houston Texans game on Sunday night, US defenseman J.J. Watt had a chance to see his younger brother, Pittsburgh Steelers' outside linebacker T.J., deliver an impressive new three-bag performance.
J.J. also knew that with these three bags, T.J. He took the lead in the family, with six on the season, and was tied with the Bengals' defensive tackle, Geno Atkins, to lead the NFL.
"I knew he had six bags, so I knew I had to have at least one, otherwise I could not go back to my phone after that," said J.J., said. "Then I missed that one, so I was really pissed off."
J.J.'s only bag arrived at the end of the fourth quarter and ensured that there would be a tie in the NFL's family ranking and bag standings for at least a week.
T.J. also had a three-bag performance in Week 1 against the Browns, and J.J. had three sacks in the third week against the Giants.
According to T.J., the comings and goings are simply "healthy competition". J.J. he and his brother are "the biggest fans of each other".
"It has always been competitive," J.J. said. "It's always been like that, it's the first time in the league that we're lucky enough to be in good health and doing it at the same time." But no, we're the ones biggest fans of each other.I want to see him get as many bags as he can, in the same way that he wants to see me.We are competing, and there is really a little bit of underlying competition, but at the end of the day, he gets 500 bags, I would be happy like hell. "
The fact that the brothers share the same interest is also a good thing for their mother, Connie.
"I'm sure my mom thinks it's a lot cooler than me," says T. Me. "She will take a picture, and our names will be side by side, and it will be cool for her."
J.J. "He always knew what his brother is capable of", and it's fun for the rest of the league to be able to see him. "
"It's pretty wild when you go there and you look at the bag sheet, and you see our names next to each other," J.J said. "We used to fight in the backyard, and now we can see our names at the top of the NFL bags chart." It's amazing, and I've of luck.I have two incredible brothers[TJetchargeursbackback[TJandChargersfullback[TJetchargeursbackback[TJandChargersfullbackDerek Watt]and I am very lucky. "
T.J .: "It's something I'll never take for granted, it's being able to sit on the couch and watch them play.It's pretty special."
But although J.J. and T.J. are tied for the top in the sacks, the older brother pointed out Wednesday that he was ahead in another category.
"Today, he had his second player of the week in the AFC or something else, but, I mean, I had the player's name of the month last month," JJ I said. "So I think it's a little cooler."
