T.J. Watt may be the Defensive Player of the Year, who tied the all-time single season sack record and could break the Steelers all-time sack record this coming season, but he’s no match for Meg.

Watt along with his defensive teammates Alex Highsmith and Minkah Fitzpatrick were playing pickleball at North Park over the weekend when Meg joined them for a game of doubles.

Meg’s daughter tweeted out a screen shot of the foursome with Meg saying, “So I rolled up to North Park tonight to jump in a pickup pickle ball game. Started playing with these guys. Had no idea who they were. Last game the guy in the green shirt and I whooped the other too. Then everyone else there wanted to take our photo…”

Calling one of the best safety’s in the NFL “the guy in the green shirt” hilarious.

Looking at the photo, you can see Meg is dwarfed by the Steelers players but as Watt said in a Tweet she “ was serving the heat.”

Watt apparently recently picked up the game, with a Dick’s Sporting Goods worker taking a picture of Watt after he bought a pickleball paddle.

For those that are unaware, pickleball is a cross between tennis, ping pong and badminton.
A plastic ball is used on a half court with paddles that resemble an oversized ping pong paddle.

Pickle ball has been popular among older people for years, but has quickly become popular with younger generations with it being called the fastest growing sport in America.

Watt may be nearly unstoppable on the football field, but he better hope he doesn’t run into Meg anytime soon on the court.
