As an NFL superstar, Watt likely receives a ton of fan mail. As his career comes to a close, the mail has likely increased. Fans are probably spending the time and money to send Watt thoughtful gifts he and his family can use in retirement.

Upon receiving a taxidermy badger, JJ tweeted the photos and shared, "I have received a lot of wild fan mail over the years. This package that arrived today is certainly being added to the list."
