If there’s ever been anything you wanted to say directly to Wisconsin Badgers legend JJ Watt, now is your chance.
The future Hall of Fame defensive end, now with the Houston Texans, is using his extra free time after going on the injured reserve to connect with his fans in an even more direct way than his usual strong presence on social media.
That’s right, Watt posted his phone number and allowed fans to reach out to him directly. He admitted he was looking for better ways to connect with his fans, and wanted to try out direct texting.
Watt said he received over 25,000 texts, and while he did take the time to respond to hundreds of them, don’t be surprised if your text goes unanswered while the Pro Bowler navigates his sea of fans over the next few weeks.
