PITTSBURGH -- Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt made his impact known early in Week 10 as his team faced the Green Bay Packers. And with his first-half sack on Jordan Love, the edge rusher passed off his brother on a historic list. 

Watt's 88th sack surpassed his brother J.J.'s 87.5 as the second-most sacks in a player's first 100 games. This is Watt's 96th game in the NFL. 

Watt has 10.5 sacks this season for the Steelers, marking his fifth season in seven years with double-digit sacks. 

Reggie White leads the all-time list with 105 sacks in his first 100 games. Watt would need to average 4.25 sacks per game to tie the record. 

The former Defensive Player of the Year is looking to catch his brother in another category, winning his second DPOY honor this season, chasing his brother's three. Obviously, he's also chasing his first Super Bowl as well.
