J.J. Watt Designated To Return From Injured Reserve
3 years agoThe Arizona Cardinals designated pass-rusher J.J. Watt (shoulder) to return from Injured Reserve on Friday. Watt is actually planning to return to the field for the first week of the playoffs, but it's unknown if he'll be able to pull off the incredible feat. The 32-year-old will not play in the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks. Watt has been out since Week 7 and was expected to miss the rest of the season after destroying his shoulder on a tackle. The five-time Pro Bowler and All-Pro had 16 tackles (10 solo), five tackles for loss, 10 QB hits, a forced fumble and one sack in seven games before his injury. If Watt does somehow miraculously make it back for the postseason, there's a good chance he'll have a smaller role on defense.
