Every team.
That is the list of organizations that should be placing phone calls to J.J. Watt this morning, with the news that the Houston Texans have agreed to release the standout defensive lineman. We’re talking about a five-time All-Pro, a three-time Defensive Player of the Year, and a player who has been ranked in the Top 100 Players of the NFL each of the past eight seasons, placing in the top five twice and placing first back in 2015.
Now he is on the open market.
So yes, every team should be calling about him, but what organizations might have the best chance? What teams have a need for a player like him? What teams are the best fits? Here’s an attempt at handicapping the J.J. Watt sweepstakes.
