Watt has agreed to terms with the Arizona Cardinals on a two-year contract. The three-time AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year revealed his decision to join the Arizona Cardinals on social media on Monday. Watt is expected to accept a two-year contract worth $31 million, with $23 million guaranteed, according to NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport. The deal includes $14 million in 2020 cap space. In 2018, Watt led the league with 14 sacks and he helped the Texans reach the playoffs for the third consecutive season. He's one of only four players with 10 or more sacks in each of the last five seasons (Jason Garrett, Robert Quinn, Cameron Wake). Watt, 26, finished second in the voting for the 2018 NFL MVP award after recording 59 tackles, 12 sacks, and two fumble recoveries during 16 games this past season. He became just the fourth player in NFL history to record at least 12 sacks in three consecutive seasons when he reached the mark last year. The 6'5", 260-pound defensive end has 72.5 career sacks over seven seasons with Houston and New England. He originally signed with Texas out of high school as a running back before switching to defense. Watt was considered one of if not the best defender in football before he got hurt in 2017. He returned from injury in 2018 and was still effective despite missing most of November and December with a shoulder injury.
