As if there was not enough smoke surrounding the Houston Texans' reported pursuit of DeMeco Ryans to be their next head coach, arguably the greatest player in franchise history poured some fuel on the fire Monday afternoon.
Former Texans defensive end J.J. Watt—a three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year and five-time Pro Bowler during his time in Houston—took to social media to stir the pot, posting a caption-less photo on Twitter. The image featured him and Ryan, who played together during Watt's rookie season in 2011, sharing a laugh during a game.
