J.J. Watt led Wisconsin in passes broken up during his senior season, something Houston Texans' scouts discovered in preparing for the 2011 NFL Draft.

Watt misdirected four passes from Ryan Tannehill in Week 1.

“Basically, when you know you’re not going to get to the quarterback,” Watt said, explaining his methodology, “you watch his eyes, you watch his arm, you see when he starts to cock his arm and that’s when you put your hands up.

“Obviously I had a little bit of success with it (against the Dolphins). It’s something that really I feel frustrates the offense, and that’s a big deal. (The quarterback) thinks he has a receiver open. The receiver thinks he is open, and then all of a sudden you block the pass and the play is over, so I think it’s a big play for us.”
