Texans' J.J. Watt becomes 1st NFL player with multiple 20-sack seasons
Troy Taormina-USA TODAY Sports / Reuters
With his third sack in Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt became the first player in NFL history to record multiple 20-sack seasons.
Watt was named the AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year in 2012 after putting up 20 sacks and, having matched that total, appears in line for the award once again.
Although just nine players have ever reached the 20-sack mark, it would hardly come as a surprise to see Watt continue his dominance and produce at this level for years to come.
