JJ Watt may be out for the season for the Houston Texans, but his brother T.J. is giving fans a taste of what they are missing.

TJ, a junior at Wisconsin, scored a touchdown in the second quarter against Purdue on Saturday by catching a pass he blocked and returning it 17 yards for a score to make it 14-3, Badgers.

The play was especially impressive because players typically can only bat down a pass from that close range, not actually catch it.

The good hands must run in the family — recall this pick-six by JJ against Buffalo in 2014.

TJ, who is showing similarities to his brother, entered Saturday’s game with seven sacks on the season.
