J.J. Watt is going to reward a bettor who lost a parlay on his TD that refs erroneously called back

This bad beat just turned into a huge win.

J.J. Watt should have had an easy touchdown in Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams.

When his Cardinals teammate Myjai Sanders strip-sacked John Wolford in the second quarter, Watt had an easy scoop and what should’ve been a short return.

The ruling on the field, however, was an incomplete pass. So Watt’s recovery didn’t count. And while replay review overturned the call, correctly giving Arizona possession, it couldn’t correct the true outcome of the play.

For Arizona bettor Joey Reyes, that was the difference in a parlay that came up short needing one final leg: a touchdown for Arizona’s defense.

Instead of winning $1,000, Reyes got nothing, and he couldn’t help but share his disappointment with Watt on Twitter.

Watt, who clearly wanted that score, shared in his pain. So the three-time Defensive Player of the Year is apparently gifting Reyes something to make up for it.

“I got you. DM me your address.”

“I’m just an AZ boy born&raised, love nothing more than my Arizona Cardinals. So Cardinals ML is obvious, had faith in the defense stepping up yesterday against Wolford & James Conner is healthy again so I knew he would do his thing!” Reyes told For The Win in a direct message.

It turns out Reyes was right, but the referees were wrong for blowing the play dead. They should have let Watt score, then reviewed the fumble after.

Thanks to Watt, the blown call might not cost Reyes. But there’s likely someone else out there who isn’t so lucky.
