Deshaun Watson responded on Twitter Tuesday to someone who criticized him for not dressing well enough to the National Championship Game on Monday.

Watson was in Santa Clara to watch his alma mater Clemson Tigers destroy Alabama 44-16 in the title game at Levi’s Stadium. One radio host criticized Watson for not dressing better. Watson wore a purple hoodie and some flannel pants that resembled pajamas.

The Houston Texans quarterback defended himself by saying he was “very comfortable and chill” and that his brand is solid.

Watson played through some serious injuries this season and just saw his Texans get eliminated from the playoffs. I think we can cut him some slack in this case.
