Pat McAfee’s Bold Promise of $500,000 on NFL Records Ahead of Regular Season
In a super kind move, Pat McAfee, who used to play in the NFL, has made a really cool promise. He’s said that if a special player does something amazing in the upcoming football season, he’ll give a lot of money to a good cause.
So, here’s the scoop: T.J. Watt, a really good player from the Steelers team, was on Pat McAfee’s show. While they chatted, McAfee had an idea. He said that if Watt can break a big record for tackles in one season, he’ll give $500,000 to a charity that Watt picks. That’s a lot of money!
????????: Pat McAfee says he’ll donate $500,000 to the charity of #Steelers TJ Watt’s choice if he breaks the 22.5 sack record in 2023, which is currently held by Watt and Michael Strahan.

McAfee believes that the Steelers’ defense (that’s the team’s way of stopping the other team from scoring) is going to be really good this year. He’s excited to see what Watt does. If Watt can make 22.5 tackles happen, McAfee will make a big donation to help people in need.
When McAfee shared this idea on his show, Watt was surprised. He thought it was an amazing thing to do. Now, Watt has a special mission for this season: he needs to stop the other teams from moving forward as much as he can.
The current record for tackles in a single season is held by Michael Strahan. He got 21.5 tackles in one season, and that was a record for twenty whole years! Watt got the same number of tackles in 2021, tying with Strahan. But now, he’s aiming to beat that record.
As we wait for the games to start, everyone is curious. Will Watt be the new record holder by the end of the 2023 season? It’s like a big game within the big game!
