Jalen Ramsey had bragging rights towards TJ Watt and Myles Garrett following the Pittsburgh Steelers' 23-9 win over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday afternoon.
Ramsey has been enjoying his first year with the Steelers, having departed the Miami Dolphins after two seasons. He's embraced his role in the defense, shining in the secondary as Pittsburgh had a strong start to the season.
Against the Browns, Ramsey finished with six tackles, two pass deflections and two sacks. In the sacking department, he had the advantage over his co-star Watt (0.5 sacks) and opponent Garrett (no sacks).
Ramsey reflected on his performance after the game, via reporter Ari Melrov. He said he plans on telling his family about his edge over Watt and Garrett in the matchup.
“Imma probably tell my kids about this. I played in a game with TJ Watt and Myles Garrett and had two sacks. That’s crazy, huh!?,” Ramsey said.
