Have you seen J.J. Watt’s last press conference? J.J. Watt pissed off with his fellow Texans teammates. Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt has been frustrated with the team’s play this season, but his frustration appeared to boil over after Sunday’s loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.
After admitting that the defense didn’t play well against the Bengals, Watt was asked how the team will regroup heading into Week 17, which led to Watt going on a rant about how poorly the Texans have played this season, saying he feels bad for the fans and the people “who care so deeply” about this team.
“We’re professional athletes getting paid a whole lot of money,” Watt said. “If you can’t come in and put work in in the building, go out to the practice field and work hard. Do your lifts and do what you’re supposed to do, you should not be here. This is a job. We are getting paid a whole lot of money.
Texans J.J. Watt Pissed Off With Teammates
“There are a lot of people that watch us and invest their time and their money into buying our jerseys and buying a whole bunch of s—, and they care about it. ”
“Care every single week. We’re in Week 16 and we’re 4-11, and there’s fans that watch this game, that show up to the stadium that put in time and energy and effort and care about this. So if you can’t go out there and you can’t work out, you can’t show up on time, you can’t practice, you can’t want to go out there and win, you shouldn’t be here. Because this is a privilege. It’s the greatest job in the world.”
“You get to go out and play a game. And if you can’t care enough, even in Week 17, even when you’re trash, when you’re 4-11. If you can’t care enough to go out there and give everything you’ve got and try your hardest, that’s bulls—.
“There are people every week that still tweet you, that still come up to you and say, ‘Hey, we’re still rooting for you; we’re still behind you.’ Have no reason whatsoever to. We stink. But they care and they still want to win and they still want you to be great. Those people aren’t getting paid. We’re getting paid handsomely.”
“That’s why. And that’s … that’s who I feel the most bad for, is our fans and the people who care so deeply and the city and the people who love it and who truly want it to be great. And it’s not. That sucks as a player to know that we’re not giving them what they deserve.”
