The Houston Texans will be honoring former star pass rusher J.J. Watt in a massive way this season.
They will be inducting Watt into their Ring of Honor on Oct. 1 when his brother T.J. comes to town for the Texans-Steelers game.

They couldn’t have picked a better game for this ceremony.
Watt played 10 seasons (2011-20) with the Texans before spending the last two seasons of his career with the Arizona Cardinals. In four of those seasons, he finished with 60+ total tackles and 16+ sacks.
His best individual season came in 2012 when he racked up 81 tackles, 20.5 sacks, four forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries, and 16 passes defended.
He’s going to down as arguably the greatest pass rusher of this generation and there’s no doubt he’ll be in the Hall of Fame in a few years.
Kickoff for that Oct. 1 game will be at 1 p.m. ET.
