Texans star defensive end J.J. Watt wasn't able to make it to Drake's concert last weekend, but the reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year was represented by the popular rapper.

Drake wore a Watt jersey while performing Sunday.

"I thought that was pretty cool," Watt said. "I didn’t make it out to the concert, but he said he wore it. I thought that was pretty cool. Obviously, a guy that is international renowned, everybody loves his music.

"A lot of guys here went. It was really cool. I appreciate it very much. I appreciate the respect and obviously the respect goes both way.
