Houston Texans: J.J. Watt Wants To Be Top-Tier DE, Go To Super Bowl
The decision by the Houston Texans to take Wisconsin’s J.J. Watt with the 11th overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft was a questionable call in the eyes of some, since other star players that addressed bigger needs were still on the board.
However, those who were uncertain about the prospects of Watt in his first season were smiling from ear to ear by the end of the year.

Off The Field: The Justin J. Watt Foundation
“Dream Big, Work Hard”
Texans’ fans, you should be very proud.
Everyone knows the impact JJ Watt had in his first season as a Texan on the field, but no matter what he achieves on the field, it won’t compare to what he is doing off the field.
In just his second year as the Texans’ starting defensive end, Watt has fully embraced Houston. Even as much...

Watt going Predator?
On Thursday, J.J. Watt posted a photo via his twitter asking his followers if they like his “possible” new look for the 2012 season. Honestly Watt looks like he belongs in a Sci-Fi movie, but as long as he makes it happen like he did in his rookie season in 2011 what does it matter? Either way what do you think of the new look?
Which look do we like better?
Let...

Texans DE J.J. Watt says working at Pizza Hut made him the man he is today
One of the reasons the Texans’ defense transformed from a horrible unit into a formidable one last season was the play of rookie defensive end J.J. Watt. Watt, whose season was capped off by an amazing interception that helped secure a first-round playoff win over the Bengals, finished the year with 5.5 sacks and 56 tackles. His future looks very bright, and according to...

J.J. Watt Is All Over Miss America, Laura Kaeppeler
Houston Texans defensive lineman J.J. Watt, Miss America Laura Kaeppeler and yours truly all have two things in common.
1. We’re awesome. 2. We’re all from Wisconsin. So suck on that, *******!
Yeah, frankly, we were just as surprised as you when we found out Miss America was a Wisconsin girl, but it’s true and you’ll see why when you take a look at Kaeppeler...

Watt proves to doubters he belongs in NFL
HOUSTON -- J.J. Watt is 6-foot-5, 290 pounds, runs the 40-yard dash is 4.8 seconds and has a vertical leap of 36 inches.
"Thirty-seven," he corrects.
Oh, yes. Right. Thirty-seven inches, indeed.
These are all numbers recorded at the NFL Scouting Combine last spring. Given that they represent the NFL's attempt to quantify Watt's potential as an NFL player,...

Watt's play keys Texans' victory over Bengals
HOUSTON -- First, let's eliminate one prevailing narrative: While Texans rookie defensive end J.J. Watt shifted momentum with his seismic pick-six late in the first half on Saturday, those familiar with his athleticism, hands and practice habits weren't stunned by the play Watt delivered.
"He's always got a knack for (deflections and interceptions)," Texans...

The first game on today’s playoff slate was probably (let’s be honest) the least-compelling match-up of the weekend, with the Houston Texans making their first-ever playoff appearance against the Bengals in Houston.
The game was tied up with time winding down in the first half when Texans rookie DE J.J. Watt came...
