T.J. Watt Surpasses LaMarr Woodley For Most Sacks In 1st 4 Seasons In Team History At 40

T.J. Watt got to Ryan Tannehill on the Tennessee Titans’ opening drive of the second half. It was his fifth (full) sack of the season. And it was the 40th sack of his four-year career. With that sack, he broke a Pittsburgh Steelers record for the most sacks in a player’s first four seasons—and he has another 10 games to go.

The previous record holder was non other than LaMarr Woodley, who had a fantastic run with James Harrison in the late 00s and early 10s. He record 39 sacks in his first four seasons, and nobody else had more than 30.
