J.J. Watt owned a tough moment during Patriots-Steelers broadcast: Former defensive end J.J. Watt is in his first season as an announcer for CBS’ NFL game coverage, partnering alongside Ian Eagle.

Watt and Eagle had the call for Sunday’s Week 3 matchup between the Patriots and Steelers. Aside from their retro looks — a nod to the 50th anniversary of “The NFL Today” on CBS — the duo drew positive reviews for providing a balance of banter and insight.

After the game, one viewer pointed out on social media that it appeared Watt had encountered a slight wardrobe malfunction mid game.
