Character: Passion
Not only was @JJWatt one of the most dominant defenders of his generation, he was also one of the greatest men off the field.

You probably have seen the photo of J.J. Watt with the bloody nose.
The photo exudes grit, determination and PASSION for the game of football.
Watt also has demonstrated a PASSION to care for people and to make a difference off the field.
That can be seen in what he did to help the city of Houston recover after Hurricane Harvey in 2017: more than 1,000 homes rebuilt, 239 million meals distributed,337,000 prescriptions delivered, nearly 1,000 child care centers built. Watt’s efforts made a difference in so many lives, that number cannot be counted.
