In a recent exchange on platform X, formerly known as Twitter, the Arizona Cardinals’ defensive end JJ Watt became embroiled in a conversation that sparked both surprise and amusement. The platform is renowned for hosting witty and entertaining banter, and Watt found himself at the center of one such eyebrow-raising affair.

As social media users unleashed their astonishing comments, the NFL player, known for his exceptional skills on the field, faced the challenge of responding with an equally astounding comeback, adding another layer to the vibrant and humorous exchanges that often unfold on the platform.

Watt boasts an impressive record with five Pro Bowl selections, five first-team All-Pro recognitions, and three NFL Defensive Player of the Year awards. When Rashard Mendenhall, a former American football running back and current television writer, took to platform X, voicing an unpopular opinion, Watt was quick to rebut. Mendenhall, who played in the NFL for six seasons, primarily with the Pittsburgh Steelers, suggested that the Pro Bowl should be replaced with “an All-Black vs. All-White bowl” which would then allow him to establish the fact that he is “better than ur goat.”

However, Watt was not going to let it slide. He posted his comeback, stating, “We’d get cooked at corner, not gonna lie. Nobody on our squad is covering Tyreek.’ Absolutely no one messes with the Miami Dolphins beast! However, when it comes to his franchise, the team seems to be performing surprisingly well without the cheetah.
