Turns out Houston Texans star J.J. Watt was a beast in high school, too.

MaxPreps, which covers high school football recruits, recently posted a video compilation of the Texans defensive end dominating opponents during his younger days in Pewaukee, Wisconsin.

After watching the highlights, it's no surprise Watt was named first-team All-State his senior year.

He then ended up earning a scholarship from Central Michigan before transfering to Wisconsin in 2008.

The rest, as they say, is history.
