J.J. Watt doesn't want contract extension with Texans: 'Would be the wrong move'

After the Houston Texans made left tackle Laremy Tunsil the highest-paid lineman in football, Watt says he’s not looking to cash in on a contract extension.

“No, I don't think that's necessary,” Watt told reporters in a conference call. “I think that I fully understand and respect the situation that I’m in and what has happened the past few years.

“So I'm not going to sit here and demand anything. ... I think if I went back and asked for an extension or more money right now, I think that would be the wrong move.
