Texans to induct J.J. Watt into Ring of Honor on Oct. 1

HOUSTON -- The Houston Texans will induct defensive end J.J Watt into the team's Ring of Honor in Week 4 on Oct. 1 against the Pittsburgh Steelers during halftime, the team announced Monday.

Watt retired after the 2022 season after playing his last year with the Arizona Cardinals and finished with 114.5 career sacks in his 12 seasons. But he was the Texans' most decorated player in the franchise's 21-year history.

The Texans initially drafted him with the No. 11 overall pick out of Wisconsin in the 2011 NFL draft, and he played 10 seasons for the organization.
