Wisconsin’s Watt Breaks Left Leg In Houston Loss

Pewaukee native and former Badger J-J Watt suffers another big setback with the Houston Texans. He broke his left leg in the first quarter of Sunday night’s 42-34 Texans’ home loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Watt fell to the ground while being blocked, and he did not appear to put any weight on his left leg as he was carried off the field and taken to a hospital. Watt, a three time N-F-L defensive player of the year, missed the final 13 games of last season following a second surgery on his back. The Texans said he had a fractured tibial plateau, but they did not say how long he might be out.
