Can the Houston Texans replace J.J. Watt?

J.J. Watt has put together a Hall-of-Fame type career in his time with the Houston Texans. He has been a contributor on both offense and defense for the Houston Texans. In 10 seasons with the Texans, he has recorded 528 combined tackles, 101 sacks, two interceptions and two touchdowns.

I sure hope the #texans figure it out as an organization. My fear is Deshaun Watson could be one of the greatest wastes of talent we may ever witness. They did it with JJ Watt already. Watson might be even more painful to watch.

It will be difficult for the Houston Texans to replace J.J. Watt. He has put together 10 years of success for the Texans. Watt could be labeled as a generational talent at the defensive end position. The Houston Texans would have to find another J.J. Watt through the NFL Draft. There is not any defensive ends in this year or next years draft that would make an impact like Watt.

These four teams would be good landing spots for the veteran defensive end.

Dallas Cowboys:

J.J. Watt has expressed how much he enjoys the city of Houston. He has done a lot for the city since being drafted by the Texans. Dallas Cowboys need help on the defensive front. The Cowboys would have DeMarcus Lawrence on one side and J.J. Watt on the other.

Green Bay Packers:

Green Bay Packers could be a potential spot because Watt is from Wisconsin and played for the Badgers. He would love to go back home and play for the Packers. The Packers defense would get a huge boost on their front seven if they were able to add a player of his caliber.

Pittsburgh Steelers:

J.J. Watt's younger brothers, T.J. Watt and Derek Watt, play for the Pittsburgh Steelers. This would be a dream come true for the veteran defensive end to play along side his two brothers. Having J.J. Watt on one side and T.J. Watt on the other would make the Steelers front seven almost unstoppable.
