The Houston Texans‘ Week 9 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars was a memorable one for JJ Watt.

Not only did the Texans win to improve to 2-6 on the season, but Watt recorded his 100th career sack.

After the game, Watt–the leader of the Texans–delivered a powerful message to his teammates in the locker room.

“To do it on a day we got a win as a team means a lot to me,” JJ Watt said after the game in a video tweeted by Houston. “Football is the ultimate team game. Nobody does anything by themselves in football. That’s why it’s so special.”

This is what makes Watt so special. He's one of the most selfless superstars in NFL history and a great teammate to be around.

Watt is the 35th player in NFL history to reach 100 career sacks. The Texans star is also the fourth-fastest player in league history to record 100 sacks, as Watt did it in 120 career games.

The Texans are in third place in the AFC South standings. They will have to go on a crazy run to finish the season to make the playoffs, but anything is possible with Watt leading the way on defense and quarterback Deshaun Watson playing excellent on offense.

Houston will face the Cleveland Browns in Week 10. It's a golden opportunity for the Texans to get win No. 3.
