Pro Bowl Interview: Texans star J.J. Watt

01/23/2015

JJ Watt

At the beginning of the 2014 season, J.J. Watt signed a $100-million contract. Of course, that put a target square on his back and gave him much to live up to. Was he worth every penny? So far, the answer is simple: yes.

Watt became the first player in NFL history with two 20-sack seasons, scored five touchdowns – including a three on offense – and led the league in quarterback hits with 50. He also led all defensive ends with 10 passes knocked down.

At the Pro Bowl this week, our Laura Okmin had a chance to catch up with Watt.
