TJ Watt Tells Pat McAfee If EPIC Story About Him Resigning With Steelers Is Real

What young kid doesn't want to be TJ Watt these day's??? He has actually obtained. Young fan's and swayed them away from the team they previously liked lol, it's amazing how good of a role model TJ Watt is and how intelligent and how down to earth he is ?
