This Pittsburgh Steelers star has expressed his discontent with the DPOY decision! This season has been a rollercoaster ride for TJ Watt. Previously, he suffered from an MCL sprain, and then the Steelers failed to make it to the Super Bowl. But despite such a loss, his record-breaking sacks were a glimmer of hope in the gloom for the player. However, it seems TJ Watt had some concerns regarding his records.

The star linebacker’s defense prowess is no stranger to the NFL realm. He broke the record for most seasons as the NFL sack leader, previously held by Reggie White and his brother, JJ Watt. He even set records in history. But this does not mean he could make the DPOY this year.

T.J Watt’s cryptic update!

In a recent X post, T.J. Watt reflected on his sentiment about the NFL honors. Just an hour before the show, he made an X post stating, “Nothing. I’m not used to it.” Is this an indication that he will not make it to the NFL Defensive Player of the Year? Despite his outstanding performance with 19 sacks record, he hinted at his frustration for skipping the NFL honors. This Thursday, during the NFL honors, the DPOY awards went to Myles Garett from the Cleveland Browns.

Watt has been passed over for the second time in his career, despite having a statistical advantage in sacks. Previously he lost to Stephon Gilmore in 2119. Again, he lost the award to Garett by only 25 points. Garett got 23 first-place votes to Watts’ 19. The Dallas Cowboys’ Micah Parson received seven. Now let’s dive into the details of Myles Garett’s record.

Myles Garett has marked the legacy!

After much speculation surrounding who will make it to the Defensive Player of the Year, Myles Garett has finally sealed his faith. He ranked seventh with 14 sacks, but the champion also shook up the NFL scene with his regular-season solid defense. The Browns showcased their dominance in defense by completing 267 yards per game. Garett ended second in the pass rush winning rate of 30.5%. Moreover, the star player had 35 pass wins while T.J. Watt had 26.

NFL reporter Jake Trotter has also praised Garett’s caliber. He said, “He played at a high level for us down the stretch.” With these fantastic records, one cannot deny Garett’s efficiency. Nonetheless, Watt proved his prowess as the top defensive player in the league via his record-winning streak. What are your thoughts on that?
