TJ Watt And Cam Heyward Team Up For Steelers Sack Record

The focus of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ 2021 sacks revolve around TJ Watt tying Michael Strahan’s (official) single-season record. But Watt wasn’t the only one getting after the quarterback this year. The Steelers finished with 55 sacks, leading the league once again and eclipsing the 50-sack mark for the fifth straight year, tying the NFL record.

Watt dusted James Harrison for the franchise-record. But Watt and Cam Heyward, himself having an elite year, also set a franchise record. Most sacks by a Steelers’ duo in team history. Watt with 22.5, Heyward with ten and I’ll help you with the math, a combined 32.
