Former NFL star defensive end J.J. Watt was thrilled Tuesday when his ex-Houston Texans teammate DeMeco Ryans joined their old team as head coach.
JJ WattLET'S GOOOOOOO!!!!!!<br><br>You want to reenergize and reignite the incredible Houston fan base, this is a hell of a start!!<br><br>Cannot wait to see what Meco does. <br><br>One of the best teammates & leaders I've ever been around. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/HTown?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#HTown</a><br><br>ud83eudd18ud83cudffc <a href="https://t.co/DNAxePxoqz">https://t.co/DNAxePxoqz</a>
Watt was clearly stoked about Ryans' joining the Texans before the move became official, posting this tweet Monday:
Watt and Ryans crossed paths for the 2011 season. That was a good year for Houston, which went 10-6, won the AFC South title and reached the divisional playoffs.
