Jim Brown on Texans' J.J. Watt: 'He's one of a kind'

Legendary Cleveland Browns Hall of Fame running back Jim Brown still pays close attention to the current luminaries of the NFL.

The dominance of three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year J.J. Watt hasn't escaped Brown's notice. Brown singled out the Texans' star defensive end during a Tristar Promotions autograph show at NRG Arena.

"He's one of a kind," Brown said of Watt. "He has the spirit. He has the ability. He has the game. He has the attitude to affect the whole team. I have a lot of respect for him."

Brown is also impressed with Texans Pro Bowl quarterback Deshaun Watson.
