J.J. Watt Offers to Pay for Funeral After Fan Tries to Sell His Jersey, Shoes
July 21, 2022
Arizona Cardinals star J.J. Watt offered to help a Houston Texans fan pay for her grandfather's funeral.
Watt reached out after the fan said she was selling a pair of Watt's signature Reebok sneakers to raise money for funeral expenses:
Watt spent 10 years with the Texans and is one of the greatest players in franchise history. A five-time first-team All-Pro and three-time Defensive Player of the Year, he had 101 sacks in 128 games.
Beyond his contributions on the field, the 33-year-old made just as big an impact off the field through his charitable exploits in the Houston region.
