TJ Watt fired a haymaker at JJ Watt on social media this week that could take older bro a long, long time to recover from.
JJ Watt joined the Peloton community after he retired from playing football. Last year, the three-time Defensive Player of the Year shared a screenshot on social media showing that he finished 8th out of 54,553 riders in one particular 20-minute workout. JJ said he was baffled that seven people finished ahead of him “based on how damn hard this was.”
The post went viral, and JJ shared it again on Tuesday. He said the result “still haunts me” over a year later.

Well, one of the seven people who finished ahead of JJ has now been identified. TJ just barely beat his older brother’s stats and finished in 7th. The Pittsburgh Steelers star shared the proof on Tuesday with a screenshot of his own results:

We have seen plenty of heartwarming moments between the Watt brothers over the years, but that social media response was an act of war. JJ might have no choice but to retaliate.
