Remember that kid you were in school with who was unreal at every sport?
JJ Watt was that kid.
The Houston Texans offensive tackle has become a real cult hero in the last couple of years, and now this previously unseen footage of him as a high school player has emerged showing that he was quite the specimen, even as a teenager.

He'd do a job on the edge of the square, I reckon.
