I used age to show that Watt (with his injuries) doesn't have much time left.
The way that you just used age is very misleading though. Reggie was 24 in his rookie year while Watt was 22.
Watt is in his 8th season. After 8 seasons, Reggie White had 124.0 sacks. We'll see if Watt can catch that number this year. He's only 42 sacks away.
Nevermind that the league passed way less back then, and Reggie has a ring.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
