SAM MIKHAIL FROM BETHESDA, MD: Have the Steelers ever led the NFL in sacks? If yes, in which season(s)? Lastly, has any Steelers player led the NFL in sacks?

ANSWER: First, let me explain that sacks were not recognized by the NFL as an official statistic until 1982, which means whatever totals the 1970s Steelers put up as a team or individually are not included in any of this. The Steelers as a team led the NFL in sacks in 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021. After they led the NFL in sacks in 2020, they became the first team in NFL history to accomplish that 4 times, and then when they led the league in 2021 they became the first team in NFL history to do it five times.
