J.J. Watt's Bengals Dream Ends After Trafford Concedes Goal

J.J. Watt's playful bet to come out of retirement and join the Cincinnati Bengals has officially come to an end. The former NFL All-Pro had promised to return if Burnley FC goalkeeper James Trafford maintained a clean sheet for the remainder of the season, a challenge Trafford nearly accomplished with a streak of 13 games. However, his streak ended when he conceded a goal against Cardiff City, prompting Watt to joke on social media about Cincinnati's Skyline Chili. Despite the playful wager, Watt has confirmed that he will not be joining the Bengals and will instead focus on his role as an NFL analyst for CBS. The bet generated excitement among fans, including those in Cincinnati, as Watt hinted at a connection to the city. Burnley, meanwhile, continues its campaign in the Championship, with Trafford aiming for more clean sheets in the remaining matches.
