JJ Watt: Pure Dominance Career Highlights! | NFL Legends 

Fun fact: JJ Watt had 13 MVP votes in 2014, the 2nd most votes ever for a defensive player since Lawrence Taylor

JJ was one of the most dominate pass rushers ever, even through all the injuries he still was quicker than most younger guys he played with. But in his prime nobody could block him.

Dude was treating the NFL like it was high school ball, lining up on both sides of the ball just dominating

Watt from 2012-2014 was just absurd. He had great years outside of that, but that stretch was pure dominance. Loved that I got to see him make that pick 6 in the playoff game.

Probably the most dominant defense player in the last 20-30 years. The guy could just blow up an offense seemingly all by himself. I only wish he could've won a SB in his career. Not only was he a tremendous player but he seems like an even better human being.

He was the pure definition of unguardable

absolute legend. the *definition* of a beast. complete dominance on defense plus being a threat on offense? unbelievable.

First ballot hall of famer. Injuries took a lot from him, but at his peak when he was healthy, he has to be in the discussion of the top ten if not top five defenders to ever lace up cleats. In my time watching football, nobody has been able to take control of a game from the position like him. If his brother keeps it up though, he'll have some competition.

So sad to see his career done. Absolute Legend

You can't help admiring a man who totally loves his job and is a master of his craft.

Five words for JJ Watt First Ballot Hall of Famer

As a Texan fan, I’m happy he was part of our family, but he deserved better and a ring.

Who is here after watching JJ on The Overlap?

Damn…I miss this guy!! What a player…greater person!!

JJ Watt is, was, and forever will be, my favorite NFL player of all time.

Truly it’s so sad to see his career done , but hey JJ watt is going to be one helluva first ballot HOF and man the NFL is going to miss him so much

JJ watt the best Texans player of all time

9:30 throwing a fade to JJ Watt is insane when Andre Johnson and Nuk Hopkins are ok your team and he caught it 😂😂😂

First ballot hall of Famer for sure one of the best defensive lineman of all time

Thank You JJ Watt I Wish You The Best In Your Future.

Onw of my TOP THREE ALL TIME FAVORITE PLAYERS to ever play. If he hadn't had so many injuries, there's ZERO DOUBT he'd have ATLEAST TWO MORE DPOY awards, probably 40-50 PLUS MORE SACKS. A MONSTER on the D-LINE. MATCHUP NIGHTMARE. Still a FIRST BALLOT HALL OF FAMER in my book. Would love to see him come back and coach somewhere, get his Lombardi trophy.

He has some of the best highlights I’ve ever seen

What’s crazy is as a D linemen he was putting up more pass break ups than most DBs

The Thumbnail says it all. Fearce Bloody Pass Rusher ! 💪#Respect

JJ Watt has been my favorite NFL players since I can even talk

His brother said it best that like 5 year stretch he had is legendary

Such a amazing player with a will that most can not stop.👍☺️

What a Blessing of a player, God bless his heart

What an absolute unit.

Pure beast amazing career

The noises he makes while charging is to remind him to drive his feet. this guy was awesome to watch!!! HOF

What an athlete

One of the nicest guys off the field but transformed into a beast on the field. One of a kind

Great player. Great man.

My idol! My hero! The absolute Greatest peak in nfl history before injuries and i wint even argue about it

its crazy how dominant he was and its like we forget because of how good edge rushers have been in the last ten years but no one was more dominant from 2010 until present. he won like 3 DPOYs?! 20 sacks like twice or three times? Crazy good.

We love jj in houston he was a top 3 all time player, and the crazy thing is despite how great of a player he was hes an even better man just a phenomenal guy

THANK YOU JJ!!!!!!!!

The man who made me a Houston Texans fan. Thanks JJ. Favorite player all time.

Best defender I ever witnessed playing.

Before the start of JJs second nfl season, Wade Phillips who was the texans dc at the time did an interview with some of the local Houston media. in the interview he basically garentees that JJ was going to be a hall of famer. which at the time sounded like an extremely bold claim.

When JJ got the arm brace it was OVER❗️🤘🏼

Gotta keep it 100. Saw this dude live in the Mercedes Benz stadium against the Falcons back in I think 2016 (edit excuse me it was 2015). Falcons beat the shit out of the Texans that day. With that being said, seeing JJ Watt perform live was a true honor and privilege. Dude is an unreal competitor. As big as he is, and he jumps off the snap quicker and more explosive than any other player on the entire field. Guy is the definition of dominant at his position. At one time I remember him being like #5 best player in the league ANY position because he was THAT impactful. We were all graced by this man's career.

Lmao that bud light commercial at the beginning is freakin hilarious

C’mon NFL Throwback, I’m waiting for Tom Brady career highlights video!

wow....I didn't realize how much JJ tortured the Titans LOL

As a Texans fan I still got my JJ jersey #99 SWATT 🐂

Jj watt aka beast

I have imagined being a quarterback and having J.J Watt lined across me. One word, terrifying. I am very sure many quarterbacks and offensive coordinator are sleeping better at night and not having nightmares about him.

Greatest to ever do it. No one is even close.

JJ watt is a hall of famer, all time great. Shame on the Texans and cardinals for not building a team that could have gone to at least a conference title game or Super Bowl.

Absolutely loved watching this guy play. I figure most quarterbacks see him in their nightmares. :)

I've never seen a d line man who can defend the pass like him

The greatest Houston Texan of all time

Those who are blessed with the most talent don't necessarily outperform everyone else. It's the people with follow-through who excel.

Gonna miss him he was the beast since the beginning I remember in the 2011 wild where Watt got a pick six vs the Bengals and I knew he's gotta had a terrific career.

My second favorite all time defensive player. He is follows his brother T.J. Watt on my favorite defensive players list

It upsets me he left with no Super Bowl. Obviously he doesn’t need one, he’s gonna be a hall of farmer and he is one of the best defensive players of all time. But he just deserves one

this guy is a fucking BEAST.

What I'd like to point out. After the sack: no taunting the quarterback, he always takes three steps away from the spot and celebrates. He let's his raw power and his hunger to get the sack speak for itself.

Monster Watt! Brasil here!!!

His rookie year pick 6 in the playoffs is truly one of the most athletic plays I’ve ever seen.

man getting dimed up by JJ watt throwing it to you in the nosebleeds is something really special. what a guy on and off the field. that guy had his day made right there

I'm Not Going To Front!!!! JJ Was Nice With It!!! I'm A Titan Fan!!!! REAL TALK!!!!

as a texans fan we love him sm special special player he definitely should’ve won MVP in 2014 such a qb award

Thanks for the great football JJ. The guy could have been the mayor of Houston and no one would complain. Came out of Wisconsin and made Texas proud.

No one, NO ONE was better than a healthy Watt…no one

He’s a one man double edge sword at defensive end

they can't contain that man

Peak JJ and peak Gronk were the closest the NFL ever had to cheat codes. Madden Michael Vick be damned.

How can you not love this guy?

Bro making a play without a helmet is crazy… but also leading with your head is absolutely insane

win or loss! his stats were so UNREAL! he should have been MVP!

I came here to watch JJ tackle and destroy the offense… he never disappoint! Thank you JJ Watt!

I always looked up to him growing up

Bro every play they held nd he just blew right through it still

He probably has more PBU’s than all of the starting corners in the league put together

Watt owned my Bengals, the Andy Dalton Bengals, in the playoffs. Great career. Ended too soon.

growing up i watched this guy and now looking back i really forgot how insane he was

The best defensive player of my generation they will never be another JJ Watt robbed of his 2014 MVP the best player on the planet enjoy your retirement goat 🐐

When all his guys go hug him and crap and tell him what a great job he did,JJ is sitting there like hey you guys did you just see what I did??!!!😂😂😂

JJ Watt was the best DE I ever saw. I appreciate all the years he gave us in a Texans uniform.

Imo top ten players who ever played the game He played like Lawrence Taylor and that says it all!!

JJ Watt is the most athletic DT/ 3-4 DE I've ever seen and it ain't even close.

Legend

J.J. Watt also played Tight End for The Houston Texans

Much love from your old fan. I hope your ok wherever you are.

One who gains strength by overcoming obstacles possesses the only strength which can overcome adversity.

Watt’s 1st 5 years in the league is one of the greatest 5 year stretches by any d-lineman

Made the whole state of Wisconsin proud!! Terrific career 👐🏻

JJ Watt is the Most greatest Defensive End in NFL History. But I want to see Patrick Kerney's NFL Career Highlights soon.

Legendary

JJ gave me so many good memories. i feel like i dont get to many of those as a texans fan 😪🤣🤣🤣

The dude is the 2014 MVP, don't care about Rodgers having an above-average year for a QB, he changed the position. How many DE's put their hands up now, literally has a move named after him in the Watt Swatt. The MVP should just be the QB award at this point.

It was a privilege watching him play and it's highway robbery that he didn't get MVP in 2014.

A BEAST!!!

JJ Watt is the best defensive player ever

Ahhh him with Ravens... 4 peat... I can dream.

Bro was a relentless menace

When performance exceeds ambition, the overlap is called success.
