Season 2025 · 13.0 fantasy pts · 14 games · Pos rank #63

Durability Story · Watch

T.J. Watt has been durable enough to stay relevant, but not durable enough for managers to stop checking the report every week. Evidence check: injury reports across 8 different seasons; 4 games missed in the last three (2025: 3 and 2023: 1); 2025 was the rough one at 3 missed; longest on-report absence ran 3 weeks in 2025 (Wk 15–17); reinjury band sits at High. The news desk has been quieter lately, so the structured history is doing most of the talking.

For fantasy, T.J. is startable but fragile: keep a handcuff or streaming backup ready when the next soft-tissue note lands.

Based on injury history + recent reporting. Not a medical diagnosis.
