Voting for the Pro Bowl is now officially open, and the best of the best in the NFL will be called to play once the people have made their pick among the selection of top-quality players. However, Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt thinks there was an injustice committed in the form of his brother Derek not making the special teams ballots.
The eldest Watt brother took to social media to express his disdain for his younger brother not making the shortlist for the special teams. He even added a certain stat to make the exclusion look even more ridiculous.
“Literally leads the NFL in tackles on special teams but isn’t on the Pro Bowl ballot for special teams,” Watt wrote on Twitter. “So make sure to place a vote for [Derek Watt] at fullback. Extremely deserving!”

He added that his brother deserved to be included before urging his fans on voting his younger brother in. He even managed to add a motivational speech for T.J., the youngest out of the three.
“You don't need any help [TJ Watt] you're on your way to DPOY,” was how he finished his tweet.
This is a wholesome family moment for the Watts. The eldest is out for the season after tearing his left pectoral muscle, so he has nothing else to do other than cheer his siblings while he focuses on recovery. He finished the season with 24 tackles, three pass deflections, one forced fumble, two fumble recoveries, and four sacks for the Texans.
It would be great for the Watt family if his two brothers make it, so he's doubling his efforts to get his family in.
