Watt joins former Texans teammate DeAndre Hopkins in the Valley of the Sun.  Hopkins was traded to the Cardinals this last off-season.  J.J. had spent his entire 10-year career with the Houston Texans.

The Cardinals just missed the NFL Playoffs in 2020 with an 8-8 record.  Watt will be counted on to provide a pass rush for one of the rising teams in the NFL.
