J.J. Watt, who retired after the 2023 NFL season, has sparked speculation about a possible return to the league, particularly with the Houston Texans, where he spent most of his career. The 35-year-old has remained in peak physical condition and has expressed willingness to assist the Texans if needed, stating he told head coach DeMeco Ryans he would be available in case of emergencies. Watt's recent visit to the Steelers' practice facility, where he interacted with his brother T.J. Watt, has further fueled rumors of a comeback, though he insists that the Steelers are well-equipped without him. Former Steelers coach Bill Cowher noted that Watt still maintains his playing weight, suggesting he could be ready if an opportunity arose. Meanwhile, Texans fans have shown enthusiasm for a potential return, with Watt's social media activity keeping the conversation alive. Although he enjoys his current role as a CBS analyst, the door remains open for Watt to return to the field, especially if injury challenges arise for either team.
