J.J. Watt, Deshaun Watson having no problem selling jerseys
J.J. Watt and Deshaun Watson are selling a lot of jerseys.
It looks like both J.J. Watt and Deshaun Watson are the most popular players on the Houston Texans right now.
Dick’s Sporting Goods has released a report that shows which NFL jerseys are the most popular among consumers right now.
Topping the list is the jersey of New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, which isn’t a surprise. It seems like he’s always No. 1.
When it comes to the Texans, Watt comes in at No. 14, which isn’t bad at all. He’s actually up a few spots this week from No. 20.
Some of the jerseys that are ahead of Watt are Rob Gronkowski of the Patriots, Cam Newton of the Carolina Panthers, Antoino Brown of the Pittsburgh Steelers and Dak Prescott of the Dallas Cowboys.
When it comes to Watson, he comes in at No. 26 which is third among all rookies. He fell one spot this week from No. 25.
Only T.J. Watt (No. 14) of the Steelers and Myles Garrett (No. 21) of the Cleveland Browns are higher on the list than Watson.

I would expect Watt’s jersey sales to go up as long as he returns to his previous form this coming season. I’m sure some fans are holding off on buying his jersey before he proves whether or not he’s the same player that he was before last season.
When it comes to Watson, there’s no doubt that the sales of his jersey will sky rocket if he ends up starting for the Texans as a rookie and plays good football.
If Watson doesn’t start in 2017, I could see his dropping into the 30’s.
