Texans defensive end J.J. Watt has a cool new logo, and also some free time on his hands.
According to Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle, Watt wasn’t among the Texans practicing at the start of OTAs, as he recovers from offseason groin surgery.
Watt, the defending NFL defensive player of the year after a 17 1/2-sack season which also included a broken hand, worked out on the side while his teammates got started on the field.
He wasn’t the only Texans star on the sidelines, as left tackle Duane Brown continues to recover from a torn quadriceps tendon. Brown has said he’ll be ready by the start of the regular season.
