Summary

NFL legend and Burnley co-owner J.J. Watt chats to Mark Chapman.

They discuss everything from bench pressing with the Burnley players to the uncertainty of the NFL draft.

Watt opens up on why he decided to invest in Burnley – and why once he did so, he was determined to win over the fans, just when he did after moving to Houston as an American footballer.

They also discuss goalkeeper James Trafford, the difference between sports that do and do not have relegation and the contrasting schedule between the NFL and the EFL.
