Justin James Watt, better known as JJ Watt, is a defensive end for the Houston Texans. He was born on March 2, 1989 in Waukesha, Wisconsin. In the 2011 NFL draft, the Texans picked up JJ Watt in the first round. JJ is a great player on the field and off the field. In games he sacks, tackles, and puts pressure on the quarterback. When he is not playing football he visits children in hospitals to surprise them and put a smile on there face. He is also very generous to the kids by giving them his cleats, gloves and autograph pictures. In July of 2011, family friends of mine got in a horrible car accident. The parents were killed, two of the kids were paralyzed from the waiste down, and the sister had a minor injuries. JJ went to visit the childeren in the hospital and they were so suprized. That's when he created and built a connection and friendship with them. Since the horrible accident, JJ has hung out with the three kids and written there names on his gameday gloves or cleats for good luck. JJ Watt is a great player and person from sacking quarterbacks on the field to connecting with families and childeren off the field. In my opinion JJ is an amazing role model to young kids today.
