Former NFL star JJ Watt has revealed that his wife, Kealia, proved he couldn't be a footballer by firing a venemous shot past him.

Watt played 12 seasons in the NFL before retiring last year and became a minority investor in Burnley in May with Kealia, an ex-professional footballer.

The two will represent the Clarets this June in a seven-a-side tournament for the club's men's and women's teams, competing for a prize worth almost £800,000.

However, Watt has spilled an inconvenient truth - he's not that good at football. He explained how an experiment with Kealia proved that was the case.
