Cardinals DE J.J. Watt to Retire After 2022 Season

One of the NFL’s all-time great defensive players is calling it a career. According to NFL.com, Arizona Cardinals defensive end J.J. Watt will retire after the 2022 season.

Watt posted a picture of himself and his family on his personal Twitter account, writing:

“Koa’s first-ever NFL game. My last ever NFL home game. My heart is filled with nothing but love and gratitude. It’s been an absolute honor and a pleasure.”

Watt has spent the past two seasons in Arizona but will forever be remembered for his remarkable play while a member of the Houston Texans (2011-2020).
