Texans DE J.J. Watt reacts to making NFL 2010s All-Decade Team

Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt was named to the NFL 2010s All-Decade Team on Monday, and was one of eight players to make the list unanimously.

The three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year took to Twitter on Monday evening to express his gratitude for being considered worthy enough to make the list, and even expressed interest in sharing beers and swapping stories with the rest of the players on the list.

“Incredible list of players,” Watt tweeted. “Very fortunate and grateful to find myself amongst them. Would greatly enjoy sitting around a table (6 feet apart) with some beer and swapping stories with this group.”

Watt earned five All-Pro selections after being taken in the first round of the 2011 NFL Draft from Wisconsin. The 2017 Walter Payton Man of the Year also managed to post two seasons of 20.5 sacks.
