T.J. Watt officially has some bragging rights over his older brother.
Watt, the standout Pittsburgh Steelers defensive end, passed brother J.J. Watt for the second-most sacks in the first 100 games of his career Sunday.
Not only did T.J. Watt pass his brother on the all-time list, but he also did so in fewer games.
Watt picked up his 88th career sack against the Green Bay Packers, taking down Packers quarterback Jordan Love for a loss of six yards in the second quarter.
Watt secured the record in his 96th career game for the Steelers, who drafted him in the first round with the No. 30 pick in the 2017 NFL Draft.

T.J. Watt accomplished the feat in his 96th game, passing his brother with four games remaining before playing in his 100th career game.
J.J. Watt, who starred with the Houston Texans and Arizona Cardinals, had 87.5 sacks in his first 100 games of his future Hall of Fame career.
No player had more sacks in his first 100 games than Hall of Famer Reggie White, who had 105 sacks.
T.J. Watt is 17 sacks away from tying White’s record.
Watt would need to average about 4.25 sacks in his next four games to tie White’s record.
Here are the Top 5 players to have the most sacks in their first 100 games:
Reggie White: 105
T.J. Watt: 88
J.J. Watt: 87.5
Myles Garrett: 85.5

Bruce Smith: 84.5
Cleveland Browns standout defensive end Myles Garrett has 85.5 sacks in the first 93 games of his career. This counts Garrett's 1.5 sacks during Sunday’s game against the Ravens.
Garrett could potentially overtake the Watt brothers if he plays in seven of the Browns’ final nine games this season.
