James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

J.J. Watt got to meet a 99-year-old fan ahead of the Texans’ playoff game against the Chiefs and the two shared something in common: the number 99. Watt said to Asalee Poole, “my jersey looks like your jersey,” noticing the similarity.

Watt took time to sign her jersey and spend a few minutes before warmups. Very cool of him.
