There have been 12 seasons in Pittsburgh Steelers history in which a defensive player has recorded 12 or more sacks with the team. That is after second-year outside linebacker T.J. Watt recorded his 12th sack of the season last week against Drew Brees, his 11th coming the week before that against Tom Brady.
Heading into the season finale, facing the mobile backup, Jeff Driskel, Watt has the opportunity to really set himself apart. If he records two or more sacks, which is something that he has done four times before, including three times this season, he can move into the top five in franchise history.
