J.J. Watt Dresses as Batman for Visit to Kids Hospital

Houston Texans defensive end, J.J. Watt is a larger than life superhero in the eyes of many NFL football fans.

Watt would certainly strike fear in the hearts of criminals, standing at 6′ 5″ and weighing 289 lbs. But, he just as easily brought smiles to the faces of little kids struggling with illness.

The full feature on J.J. Watt’s visit will air on NBC’s “Weekend Today.”

Well done, Mr. Watt, well done.
