JJ Watt shocked the sports world after announcing his retirement. He’ll be calling it a career at the end of the 2022 season.

As a result, his younger brother TJ Watt shared a heartfelt reaction to the stunning news.

He quote-tweeted JJ Watt’s announcement with possibly the perfect GIF. Especially if you’re a fan of The Office. Many likely share a similar feeling seeing Watt retire from the NFL. Especially considering he’s been one of the most dominant players during his tenure in the league.

Derek Watt also chimed in with his own message for his brother, JJ.

I mean, it’s no wonder so many people are sending their best wishes to JJ Watt. TJ is not alone by any means as he’s watched his older brother torment opposing offenses for years. I mean, just look at these accolades shared by Pickswise.

Now, TJ has had an impressive career so far. So it’ll be interesting to see if he can catch up or surpass his brother. He has a lot of work to do but he definitely has the talent to make a Hall of Fame case as well.

With two games left in the season, we’re sure to see JJ Watt give it his all. He’s calling it a career while still at the top of his game, which means he’s ending it on his own terms. That seems to be the dream for a lot of professional athletes. Congrats to Watt for his stellar career and we can’t wait to see how the rest of TJ’s plays out.
