When Texans star defensive end J.J. Watt recorded his 80th career sack Sunday, he became the second-fastest player in NFL history to reach that milestone.

The three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year hit that mark in his 92nd career game. The late Hall of Fame defensive end Reggie White did so in 70 games.

"I feel like every time I set some record, Reggie White's always beat me to it," Watt said.
