Huntley recovers the ball with the intent to do something, not fall on it and end the play. Had Watt not taken him down, Huntley may have run/thrown pass (and those stats would’ve counted). The play was not aborted. Once Huntley gets up, he's a live player. #RestMyCase

If Myles Garrett wins DPOY over T.J. Watt, it would be the first time since 2011 an edge rusher leads the NFL in sacks & loses the award to another edge rusher who recorded 5 less sacks than him. 2023: Watt 19 sacks, Garrett 14 2011: Jared Allen 22 sacks, Terrell Suggs 14
