J.J. WATT
Should Bengals have an interest in recently released star J.J. Watt? Should the Cincinnati Bengals give J.J. Watt a call?
Released by Houston Watt was released by the Texans on Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact The 31-year-old was under contract for $17.5 million in 2021, but with no remaining guarantees, his release doesn't result in any dead money against the cap. Watt, who just completed his 10th season in Houston, recorded 52 tackles (36 solo), five sacks, two forced fumbles and one interception in 16 games during the 2020 campaign. He figures to have plenty of suitors as an unrestricted free agent this offseason. Watt announced via his personal Twitter account he requested his release, which was granted by the team.

Future with Texans unclear Watt is expected to meet with Texans' representatives in the near future to discuss his future with the organization, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Impact Rapoport and Mike Garafolo go on to suggest it seems likely Watt's tenure with the Texans will end this offseason, but there's been no official indication from the franchise as of now. The veteran defensive end has one year left on his contract with no guaranteed money remaining on the deal, meaning the team could cut Watt and allow the franchise icon to pursue other options in the offseason. Deshaun Watson's recent trade request likely complicates matters more for the Texans, so it's unclear when Watt's situation will be resolved.
