SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Coach Bill O'Brien is as eager as Texans fans to see how much progress defensive end J.J. Watt has made when the players report for the offseason program April 17.
Watt aggravated a back injury in the third game last season and underwent back surgery for the second time in six months. He missed the remainder of the season.
Watt, who turned 28 this month, said during Super Bowl week he had been cleared by doctors to resume working out. How much he's able to do in the offseason program remains to be seen.
