Preseason Defensive Play of the Game: T.J. Watt doubles his sack total

Steel City Underground will pick a play of the game from each side of the ball each week of the Steelers 2017 season. Stay tuned as we hand select the very best from the black and gold!

T.J. Watt earned his first sack in a Steelers jersey, ending the previous Giants possession on a 3rd-and-7 play.

If that didn’t have Steelers Nation excited, the next play would: the very next play that is, for the Giants!

New York would take possession of the ball again minutes later, and on their very first snap, make a crucial error in letting the Steelers first round draft pick go unblocked. Watt makes an excellent read, recognizing the quarterback kept the ball and sprinting to, and finishing the tackle, for his second sack of the game.
