Jack Christiansen

Jack Christiansen (John Leroy Christiansen) was a defensive back and punt/kick returner for the Detroit  Lions.  Jack played in 1951 - 1958. In college Jack did not play football instead played on a track team at Colorado State. When he was a sophomore he decided to play football. On his very first game he was amazing. He was 6-1 and 162 pounds which made people doubt that he would make it to the NFL.
 But the Detroit Lions didn't because in 1951 the Lions drafted him.

   In his rookie season as punt returner he had 343 yards and 4 touchdowns. As a defensive back he had 2 interceptions, a fumble recovery, and 105 yards. He took the Lions to 3 World Championships. Jack went to 5 pro bowls out of 8 seasons. Soon the Lions defensive backfield was known as the "Chris Crew" because of Jacks defensive skill and his last name. In 1953 Jack had 12 interceptions. Jack was born in 1928 and died in 1986. He was inducted into the pro football hall of fame in 1970.

J.J. Watt

   J. J. means Justin James. He was born March 22 1989. He attended Central Michigan University. He played there as a tight end. He said he wanted to make it to the NFL and was playing  tight end he only got eight passes. That wouldn't get him to the NFL. So he left school and got a job at Pizza Hut. He asked his parents if he could transfer. His parents could only afford Wisconsin. J. J. was fine with it. One day J. J.was delivering pizza. He knocked on the door a ten year old boy answered the door. J. J. could tell he was a little football fan. Mom J. J. Watt's here. J. J. said "I got your pizza hut."The kid got all exited and asked his mom "Why is J. J. delivering our pizza, he's the guy on T.V." After that day     J. J. figured out that he wanted to play football again and get back to the top. After that he trained and practiced so hard everything fitted into place. He can now jump fifty-five inches without a running start.       He left a secure job as a tight end at Central Michigan University to be a Wisconsin Badger defensive end. He got drafted in the 2011 draft by the Houston Texans. In 2012 the Texans has been undefeated for the first five games. Now with Brian Cushing out it is up to J. J. Watt to lead the defense.
