Watt pokes fun at Titans QB with selfie celebration

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – J.J. Watt takes the NFL very seriously, so he gave Titans rookie quarterback Zach Mettenberger a reminder that this isn't high school by mocking the first-time starter with a pretend selfie.

Watt celebrated and sent his message after coming up with two sacks, a batted pass he nearly picked off and a forced fumble as the Houston Texans beat the Tennessee Titans 30-16 Sunday for a win in the franchise's 200th game.

The Texans defensive end said he noticed Mettenberger posted a few selfies this week, including one a couple hours before kickoff.

"I take my job very seriously, and if I was a rookie quarterback and a starter for my first time in the league I'd be a little bit more focused than that," Watt said. "Maybe he'll learn from it, maybe not, but we won the game and that's all that matters."
