With the Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense struggling early, their defense and special teams are making the splash plays. T.J. Watt and Mark Robinson forced first quarter fumbles and turnovers against the Philadelphia Eagles in Sunday’s Keystone State matchup.
Watt was the first to produce a turnover, punching the ball out from QB Jalen Hurts’ hands on a third-down scramble. CB Beanie Bishop Jr. recovered.
It’s Watt’s 33rd forced fumble since being drafted, easily the most in football. And his classic punch-out he’s become known for and was highlighted during a Sunday morning segment on ESPN, learning it from his college coach and carrying it to the pros.
