After announcing his retirement, J. J. Watt sat down with the media. The Arizona Cardinals DE revealed the most epic message he received after making the statement. The story featured Cardinals rookie Jesse Luketa, and it is one of the most epic tales a fan could possibly hear.
What an epic tale, J. J. Watt!
J. J. Watt mentioned, “I posted the tweet yesterday and then I just kinda put my phone down because I knew it would be crazy ... I’m scrolling through it and there’s this number that I don’t recognize that FaceTimes me. I’m like ‘I’m not going to answer a FaceTime that I don’t know.’ So I just let it go to voicemail, and then I get a text from that number. It’s a voice memo. I’m like ‘Who is this number?”

“So I play the voice memo… I’m like ‘What the hell is this?’ I literally thought it was distorted from the phone. Ten seconds later, a picture comes through, and it is Jesse Luketa, our rookie outside linebacker, and he has cotton balls in his mouth. He just got his wisdom teeth out.” Watt added that Luketa was high and he had no clue what he did. His message was a humble request to get a signed jersey at the season’s end.
The Arizona Cardinals became the apple of the eye after receiving the original voice memo. It could leave any fan teary-eyed with hilarity.
