JJ Watt is not joining his brothers TJ Watt and Derek Watt at the Pittsburgh Steelers, as he announced this week that he is taking his talents to the Arizona Cardinals, but the three have teamed up to, well, you just have to see. The trio of NFL stars carved out of a frozen body of water to have a unique recovery experience.
Together with former Houston Texans linebacker Brian Peters, the Watt brothers made their own version of an ice bath. Just a little cooler, a little more scenic and a little harder to assemble.
JJ wrote that they originally planned to use a chainsaw to create their recovery bath, but when the chainsaw didn’t work, they had to improvise and remove the ice themselves.
Take a look at the photos that will make you feel frozen:
The way the photos are organized makes it look like they dug in the ice and went to a sauna, although I think the sauna must have been close to the frozen tundra.
Imagine jumping and then realizing that you forgot a towel …
I would need a recovery from your recovery.
NFL fans reacted quickly to the photos and, of course, also told some jokes. Here are some of the best answers:
The Watt brothers are all successful players in the NFL and I’m fine, quite the opposite, but I’m still wondering if this is worth any benefit it provides?
You to have to appreciate NFL fans who are still trying to launch their city to players, even after signing with another team.
I thought Arizona was a dry heat?
For the people of Wisconsin, this is a lovely springtime weather.
