J.J. Watt, the former NFL star turned CBS broadcaster, offered a reminder to fans or anyone who may have been watching his coverage of Super Bowl LVIII on Sunday night.
Watt went on television with a different hairstyle, and it perplexed many NFL fans. He was compared to Jason Bateman’s character, Pepper Brooks, from "Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story," as well as someone who was going to a high school prom.
The former Houston Texans defensive end was very aware of social media making fun of him.

"You ever switch up your hair and wonder if anyone will notice?" They notice," he wrote on X.
It was Watt’s first time covering the Super Bowl from the broadcaster chair as he retired from the NFL following the 2022 season. He spent his time in the NFL tearing up opposing offenses with the Texans and Arizona Cardinals.
Watt is likely headed for the Pro Football Hall of Fame once he’s eligible. He was a five-time Pro Bowler and five-time First-Team All-Pro. He also won three Defensive Player of the Year awards.
