Arizona Cardinals star defensive end J.J. Watt, a former NFL Former Defensive Player of the Year, revealed that he had to receive medical treatment for his heart last week.
“I was just told somebody leaked some personal information about me and it’s going to be reported on today. I went into A-Fib on Wednesday, had my heart shocked back into rhythm on Thursday and I’m playing [Sunday],” Watt wrote on Sunday, referring to atrial fibrillation—an irregular and sometimes rapid heart rhythm that can lead to blood clots in the heart. “That’s it,” he added.
