TJ Watt lost the AP Defensive Player of the Year award to Aaron Donald on Saturday night and his brothers were not very happy with the vote.
Watt led the NFL with 15 sacks in 15 games for the Pittsburgh Steelers. He ended up with 53 tackles in total, two forced fumbles and an interception. But voters gave the award to the defensive striker for the Los Angeles Rams after he finished with 10 or more sacks for the fourth consecutive time.

Houston Texans star JJ Watt and Steelers’ Derek Watt were not happy.
“Aaron Donald is an absolutely incredible player. I love watching him play and he is going to the Hall of Fame without question. It has nothing to do with AD personally,” tweeted JJ Watt.
“It’s me saying what my brother doesn’t want.
“TJ played 1 game less and STILL led the NFL in all major categories.”
AARON DONALD WINS AP DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR
The defensive side of the Texans tweeted a photo of a table comparing his brother’s defensive statistics with those of Donald.
Derek Watt retweeted his brother’s file and tweeted TJ’s photo.
TJ Watt ended his fourth season with the Steelers and came very strong, making the future look very bright for the rising star.
