Pittsburgh Steelers star T.J. Watt is making light of his viral pool fall, telling reporters on Thursday that “a lesser athlete would’ve got hurt.'
In the video, Watt’s dog seems unmoved by his owner's fall, but the five-time Pro Bowler addressed the cause of his dog’s lack of concern.
"I was very calm. I’m happy about myself being calm. The dog didn’t react how I wanted him to, but that’s because I yelled at him two minutes before that because he was digging into some mud so that’s the background of that story." T.J. Watt, #90 of the Pittsburgh Steelers, warms up prior to the game against the Indianapolis Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium on Nov. 28, 2022 in Indianapolis.Watt said he received several messages after posting the video from those who were concerned about any potential injuries but said the only reason he shared it online was because he was not actually hurt.
"Too many, too many. The only reason why I posted it was because I wasn’t hurt. It was all in good fun and I put it in the group chat, and they were like ‘It’s too funny not to post. You might as well just post it.’"
