Thanks for the submission!

In the photo, the couple posed alongside each other while standing in front of a glass railing. There was a lush green field with packed stands in the background. The couple appeared all set to have a blast at the stadium.
The couple also showed off an elite fashion game. For the FIFA final, Watt wore a white textured oversized shirt over a crew-check T-shirt paired with matching shorts and black shoes. As for his partner, she donned a black fitted sleeveless crop top paired with navy blue track pants and matching shoes.
The ex-NFL defensive end made headlines last week when he took a stand for Kealie. On Wednesday, the MLS club Real Salt Lake shared an X post welcoming him and his family to a game against Burnley FC. However, the team simply addressed him in the post and ignored his wife, a local soccer legend. Calling them out, Watt posted:
“The woman in the photo grew up literally down the road, won 4 Utah state championships (1 in this exact stadium), Gatorade Player of the Year twice, National Player of the Year, and scored the fastest first goal in USWNT history… Could probably be worth a mention, but idk.”
J.J. Watt paid special tribute to Janice McNair as the Texans co-founder died at 89
On June 14, Houston Texans co-founder Janice S. McNair died at the age of 89. J.J. Watt mourned her death with an inspirational message that the ex-NFL defensive end shared via a joint Instagram post with the Texans.
“Janice was a beacon of light, not only for her own family, but also for the Texans organization and the city of Houston as a whole. All of us who were graced with her presence and kindness are better for the experience. Rest in peace Janice. We love you,” Watt said.
According to ESPN, Janice became the principal owner of the Texans after her husband Bob McNair died in November 2018. He was the former owner of the team, who worked alongside his wife to help the team find a home in Houston after a separation from the Oilers in 1996.
