Watt: Reports of injury in car wreck are fake

J.J. Watt's is not in Miami and his legs are not broken. Also, there is not a doctor somewhere out there waiting for a Facebook status to get a million likes before he can save a little girl, nor can you charge your iPhone with an onion and those photos of the 10-inch spiders in Iraq are fakes.

The Internet, man.


A rumor had been circulating that Watt, Houston Texan and NFL defensive player of the year, had broken both his legs in a car accident in Miami. Fortunately for him and the Texans, he's fine. Perhaps it all started with some wishful thinking from opposing fans.
