J.J. Watt received a check for $60,345 but he’ll have to wait until July 17th to cash it.

Earlier this year, the three-time AP Defensive Player of the Year agreed to do an interview with the hosts of the popular Pardon My Take podcast, if they could raise $50,000 for his charity, the J.J. Watt Foundation. It took less than two days for the Barstool Sports podcast’s AWLs (Award-Winning Listeners) to quickly surpass the goal. Watt and the hosts agreed to conduct the sit-down interview in either Houston or Wisconsin, depending on the four-time All-Pro’s availability which may explain the July 17th date on the check.
