Houston Texans DE J.J. Watt wasn't always ones of the most intimidating defensive players in the NFL, but he's always had serious guts. Before he began flipping 1,000-pound tires at alarming rates, before he accepted and later gave up a starting position at Central Michigan to walk on at Wisconsin, Watt attended Pewaukee High School in Wisconsin. He also lettered Â in basketball, baseball, and track & field, earning a state title in the shot put.
