NFL superstar J.J. Watt has done a lot for the communities in which he has played football over the years. For example, after a hurricane wrecked the south a few years ago, the future hall of famer raised something like six figures toward relief.
Now, Watt is set to pay for the funerals of those murdered by the career criminal who plowed into a Christmas parade crowd in Wisconsin – where J.J. grew up and later played college ball.
Classy move.
From New York Post:
The Arizona Cardinals defensive end, a Waukesha native who graduated from Peewauken High School and the University of Wisconsin-Madison, made the announcement through local media this week, Fox News said.
LOOK:
J.J. Watt is covering the funeral costs for everyone that lost their life in the Waukesha Christmas Parade. That is an amazing gesture. He has such a huge heart.

Darrell Brooks, a 39-year-old career criminal and wannabe rapper, is charged with five counts of first-degree intentional homicide in the case — with a sixth count pending after an 8-year-old boy succumbed to his injuries.
Just now seeing what happened at the holiday parade back home in Waukesha tonight.
Horrific images.
Truly hoping everyone is going to be ok and those not involved are now safe.
Thankful to everyone who rushed to action and helped the wounded.
🙏🏼
