Sometimes, we just can’t have nice things:
This game can be beautiful and it can also be brutal. Absolutely gutted that I won’t be able to finish the season with my guys and give the fans what they deserve. I truly love this game and can’t stand letting you guys down. Thank you for all of the thoughts & well-wishes.

Houston local superhero J.J. Watt is, indeed, out for the remainder of the 2019 season. It looked like a torn pectoral to me in real time, but there’s no specifics as to if it was a muscle or the tendon, the two most likely culprits. Oh, why did I say it was the pec?
Shoulda told my pec to look out lol https://t.co/LQDVoSheEr

NOT FUNNY, J.J.
Clearly, this is a devastating blow to the defense, which is looking more like a MASH unit than an NFL team.
I wonder if the Seahawks will trade us Jadeveon Clowney for Gareon Conley, Jacob Martin, and BIG PLAY Barkevious Mingo?
The Texans’ defense, whose pass rush was essentially comprised of J.J. Watt, just got much, much, much worse.
P.S.: Deshaun Watson is a wizard.
