T.J. Watt got a baby jersey right before the Steelers game from his brother J.J. Watt.
crew ahead of the Pittsburgh Steelers game against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. This is the type of interview that would never have taken place a few short years ago, but networks need access to players at all times. And if that means having a guy's brother interview him about impending fatherhood while he's supposed to be mentally preparing himself to run full speed into other professional football players, so be it.
CBS's J.J. Watt started the brief interview by saying, "I know you would rather be in the locker room than speaking to me right now, so thank you for joining us." The younger Watt revealed that he got a good lather going during warmups and was hoping that some good tunes would be on in the locker room when he got there so he could get in the right headspace and start to visualize. That's when his brother competely distracted him by talking about the fact that he was about to have a baby."I know you're trying to get in that right headspace," said J.J. Watt.
T.J. then thanked his brother from taking him out of his headspace. This is truly what brothers are all about.Stephen Douglas is a Senior Writer on the Breaking & Trending News Team at Sports Illustrated.
