J.J. Watt Reveals One of the Reasons He Left the Texans

J.J. Watt got the hell out of Dodge and never looked back.

Arizona Cardinals defensive end J.J. Watt feels zero remorse after leaving the Houston Texans over the offseason, and it’s pretty easy to understand why. The 6-0 Cardinals are the only undefeated team in the NFL this season, while his former team, the Texans are 1-5. Watt is playing his former team this weekend.

Watt was obviously asked a lot of questions about his former team during his Thursday media conference.

J.J. Watt was asked if he left the Texans because he anticipated how bad they’d be this season.

Former #Texans DL @JJWatt asked by @sarahbarshop re: his decision to leave "… did you get a sense that there would be this much turnover & this is what the Texans season would look like?"
JJ-"Umm…Yeah."
Is that one of the reasons you decided to go somewhere else?
JJ-"Yeah." pic.twitter.com/P2BO3r6Bra

Watt isn’t anticipating having any feelings on Sunday when the Texans take the field.

#AZCardinals JJ Watt on facing former team cites XL change thru #Texans roster: "It's not like I wanna beat my old team or face this guy cuz it's not the same team."

Wasn’t too hard to see the Texans would be a dumpster fire this season. Of course everything would have been a lot different if Deshaun Watson wasn’t such a fan of getting massages.

J.J. Watt made the right call.
