J.J. Watt delivers message to young teammates

J.J. Watt took a moment before his teammates went their separate ways after minicamp to deliver a message.

“I told the guys good is the enemy of great," Watt said, via the team's official website. "Never be satisfied with anything. Never be happy with just good. Every single day, you need to do something to make yourself better than everybody else. That’s the only way we’re going to improve. We can’t be satisfied with just being good. You can’t go to your workout every day, just go through the motions, and be happy with what you’re doing.”

Watt, the reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year plans to lead by example, heading back to his Wisconsin cabin to continue training for the upcoming season.

"Every single day, we need to be the best we can possibly be," Watt said. "That means, when you’re on your own, when your back home, when you’re doing whatever workout that you’re doing, you need to remember that you’re part of this Texans team. You represent the city of Houston and you need to do every single thing you need to do to get yourself ready for training camp so that when this season comes, we’re ready to hit the ground running. That’s our style."

Watt and the rest of the Texans will be back in Houston for the opening of training camp Aug. 1.
