This would be the second time in JJ Watt's career that he suffered a season-ending injury only for him to return in the postseason. In 2019, he suffered a torn pec and then made it back in time for the postseason. https://t.co/jNLtabVdu1

“He’s done all he can do in the training room and weight room and then some, so we’ll get him back out there and working him through some things,” head coach Kliff Kingsbury said of JJ Watt. “But he’s attacked that rehab just like you’d assume he would. Nobody’s ever seen anybody go at it quite like he has over the last couple of months. So it’s been awe-inspiring to watch him every day, and it’s always good to have him back on the field.”
Although the Cardinals have stumbled their way to the finish line this season. They still have a great chance to win big. And the addition of JJ Watt will just be a massive boost to the Arizona squad.
