The NFL Insider’s comments sparked off a raging debate online as to why other teams were no longer chasing J. J. Watt. To this Clayton later clarified that the teams he stated were the ones he believes are currently leading the race to sign Watt and not the only ones after him.
“People are misinterpreting what I said on radio today. I said Tennessee, Green Bay and Buffalo were the leading teams for J.J. Watt but not the final three.
“Watt hasn’t narrowed his list. The Cleveland Browns are still in. So are the Raiders. He has a dozen teams after him,” Clayton later tweeted.
