After Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady's about-face in 2022, the NFL world has become a little skeptical of stars announcing their retirements. Yes, you're done, fans, writers, and sometimes even fellow players wonder, but are you really done?
Defensive end J.J. Watt, 35, appears to be really done.
On Saturday, Watt poured cold water on the idea of a potential return before his annual charity softball game in Sugar Land, Texas.
"I had 12 great years in this league and I'm very thankful to walk away healthy," Watt told reporters.
