The four-time defensive player of the year retired at the end of the 2022 campaign.
Having played 10 seasons in Houston before joining the Arizona Cardinals , however, earlier this year he left the door open to a comeback.
“I’ve had 12 great years in this league and I’m very thankful to have walked away healthy and playing great,” he told Audacity Sports in May.
‘I’LL BE THERE FOR HIM’
“I told DeMeco (Ryans) last year, I said, ‘Don’t call unless you absolutely need it, but if you ever do call, I’ll be there.’
“And he knows not to call unless he absolutely needs it. This is the last year I’ll tell him that, because I’m not going to keep training the way I’ve been training, but he knows that if he ever truly does need it, I’ll be there for him.
“I don’t anticipate that happening — they’ve got a very good group.”
Since retiring, Watt has become an NFL analyst on CBS Sports.
In addition to his TV work, he has also set up several business interests.
Among them are English soccer club Burnley , which he bought a stake in last year.
