Early in the first quarter tonight, J.J. Watt was rushing from the defensive end position. He slipped during his rush and fell to one knee. He got back up and punched the tackle, and then proceeded to go back down again. After the play concluded, he laid on the grass until the training staff arrived.
Here's the JJ Watt injury.... very little contact on the play. Trainers were looking at his ACL/MCL. pic.twitter.com/0UZuAJ9qnZ
