J.J. Watt became a household name among NFL fans during his 12-year career.
The newly retired defensive end built his reputation as one of the league’s most effective edge rushers during his 10 seasons with the Texans before playing his final two with the Cardinals. As the three-time Defensive Player of the Year prepares for his induction into Houston’s Ring of Honor in October, many have wondered if Watt might sign a ceremonial one-day contract to retire with the franchise.
Watt made his feelings on the subject abundantly clear Tuesday. He told reporters he did not “see the reason” to sign a ceremonial pact with the Texans.
