He teased online saying, '...My last ever NFL home game. My heart is filled with nothing but love and gratitude. It’s been an absolute honor and a pleasure.”
TEMPE, Ariz. — TEMPE, Ariz. — J.J. Watt could be a terrifying presence on a football field, hunting opposing quarterbacks with unparalleled ferocity, particularly during the early 2010s with the Houston Texans.
Watt, 33, was among the premier defensive players in the NFL during the early 2010s with the Houston Texans. The former Wisconsin standout was a first-round pick in 2011 and was dominant from 2012 to 2015, finishing that four-year stretch with 69 sacks, to earn all three of his AP Defensive Player of the Year awards.
His production dipped during the later half of his career, largely due to injuries. He missed big chunks of time in 2016, 2017, 2019 and 2021 but has had a bit of a late-career revival with the Cardinals — his 9 1/2 sacks this season are his most since 2018.
