The Cincinnati Bengals made those massive upgrades to the locker room that players like Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase loved, pulling back the proverbial curtain on them this week.
But not all onlookers shared the same energy.
Former NFL star J.J. Watt, for example, used the unveiling to joke about some of the stats behind the lockers themselves. While he also said that the upgrades looked great, Watt got some pushback from fans for one of his comments.
Over a message that shared details such as the weight and accessories of each player’s locker, Watt joked about the promotion going out of its way to mention the weight at all:
I often sat at my locker and thought,
“if only it weighed more” https://t.co/tm5Qp0QKmM— JJ Watt (@JJWatt) July 30, 2024
And hey, to each their own — it’s interesting to know that one of the largest offensive tackle combos in the NFL will only have 800 pounds of support room the locker, right? Orlando Brown (345 pounds), Trent Brown (370) and Amarius Mims (340) all have lockers right next to each other, too.
Now, all we need to hear is the actual weight of every locker room space for each team in the league.
