2012 Season
"Because of his knack for batting balls down at the line of scrimmage, he was nicknamed "J.J. Swatt" by Monday Night Football commentator and former NFL head coach Jon Gruden.[10]"
This is incorrect. According to this link, Gruden dubbed Watt "JJ Swat" during the Monday night game on October 8th. That nickname was in use before Gruden's comment. On September 12th NFL writer John McClain wrote the following piece:

I believe that the line mentioned above should be removed from this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.38.99.226 (talk) 01:25, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
2013 season
Why is there no information about his 2013 season? Can someone add this section? Natg 19 (talk) 22:46, 29 July 2014 (UTC)
SWOQB?
Looking at the season stats section at the bottom of 'Professional Career' - What the hell does SWOQB mean? It's not a part of the source table on ESPN, and I can't find any other usage of this phrase in relation to football at all. And yet, he apparently recorded a SWOQB this year all the same. The only page I can find referencing this term is this exact page and nowhere else. Can we either find out what that means or remove it from the table? 217.44.116.178 (talk) 09:52, 6 December 2014 (UTC)
- Some IP editor added "Selfies with opposing quarter backs" as a stat line and it was removed and they added it back in as SWOQB. — dainomite 17:05, 6 December 2014 (UTC)
What other athletes are adding?
While expanding this specific athlete's page, I have noticed that there are more and more athletes popping up with their statistics from the current season. I plan on expanding on JJ Watt's current season with The Houston Texans. Is there anything else anyone has noticed that would be beneficial for me to add? I do not mind putting in the work to expand this page in any way that I can. Thank you in advance for any feedback.( Chrissy333 (talk) 21:32, 6 November 2015 (UTC) ) ( Chrissy333 (talk) 21:31, 6 November 2015 (UTC) ) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chrissy333 (talk • contribs) 22:29, 2 November 2015 (UTC)

I have come up with a list of eight sources that I found to be most beneficial when adding to JJ's charity section of 2015. Here is he list I came up with:

After researching these articles, I will use that information to build a section to add to his charity work. Introduction: To begin, I will build off of the 2014 year of charity work. From there, I will introduce his charity softball game of 2015 and it's unbelievable turn out. Paragraph: Here, I will break down everything he has done in 2015 leading up to his charity game and how it has such a huge impact on the community. By discussing the numbers, turn out, sponsors, and everything that goes into the event, it will be beneficial for readers to have a better understanding of everything he does on and off of the field. Conclusion: I will discuss why this is important to the Houston area and all the children that benefit every single day from his work.

It seems like you have a lot of really great information to contribute to this page, Chrissy! I recall seeing that J.J. Watt has been doing a lot of publicity things lately along with his charity work such as commercials. I would be interested in hearing more about this because I think it does a lot in preserving his current star image. Jaylinclevenger (talk) 23:11, 7 November 2015 (UTC)
- Looking at your sources, make sure you use only the facts from them. The piece from JJ Watt's foundation could have instances of bias to create a more positive image of him. Just be cautious of what you use from different sources. Other than this, I love this variety of sources and how you plan on organizing this article. Nickmccune12 (talk) 04:20, 8 November 2015 (UTC)
Awesome, thank you for the feedback! ( Chrissy333 (talk) 17:02, 8 November 2015 (UTC) )
I think adding the stats on his page weekly is a great idea and is very beneficial to the page however, I would not count that as a meaningful addition to the page. I took a look at all your sources they look reliable and constructive to his page. I also noticed his personal life section was a little smaller than the rest, I'd like to hear more about his brothers who also play football and his family life. Be careful about being biased with your additions as well.
