Details Released of JJ Watt Calling Out Bill O’Brien’s Bad Coaching To His Face That Led To His Firing

JJ Watt was already a loved member of the Texans, but this might get him a statue outside of NRG Stadium.

On Monday, the Houston Texans fired head coach and GM Bill O’Brien after a 0-4 start, but new information appears to suggest that JJ Watt may have gotten that ball rolling a week prior.

Just before the team took on the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 3, the Houston Texans defensive star is said to have gotten in a heated exchange with the head coach that led to a player revolt.

Bill O'Brien got into an argument with defensive end J.J. Watt and defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver on the practice field along with verbal altercations with other staff members during his final weeks as coach-general manager before being fired, according to league sources

“We obviously have to do something different. We are 0-4. Whatever we’re doing is not working. Something needs to change. Something needs to be different,” Watt said after the team lost to the Vikings.

The team listened.
