After a 2016 season cut short due to injury, is just happy to practice again. Watt was on the field for the Texans first day of training camp on Wednesday.

“It’s great to have him back,” head coach Bill O’Brien said. “He’s a great player, one of the top players in our league, top defensive player in our league, so to have him back, it means a lot to our football team.”

The four-time All-Pro rehabbed from back surgery and was cleared for football earlier this year. Watt participated in OTAs and minicamp this offseason, only missing practice for scheduled off days.
