A Wisconsin Badgers player simply asked a question on the Wild Card game postponement and is now facing backlash.
The Wild Card Round of the National Football League was set to kick off on Saturday with two games, followed by three on Sunday and one on Monday. However, due to heavy snowstorm conditions in New York, the match between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Buffalo Bills has been rescheduled to take place on Monday afternoon.

Former Wisconsin Badgers Player Gets Blasted Over Question On X
Former stand out player JJ Watt asked a simple question on X about the Wild Card playoff game getting postponed.
Honest question:
Wasn’t the argument for Buffalo’s new stadium not having a roof that football is supposed to be played in the elements?
This is multiple games in recent years that have been rescheduled due to weather.
Do we want the elements to be a factor or not?

Watt faced a lot of criticism for simply asking a question, but fans still blew it out of proportion.
It’s about travel to/from the game…
I got it.

Good for the fans that stood up for Watt and actually respected his question.
JJ Watt is widely regarded as the most esteemed player not only in the history of Wisconsin Badgers but also possibly in the entire NFL. As a first-ballot Hall of Famer, he has made a name for himself even in retirement. He is currently featured on CBS every Sunday and remains very active on various social media platforms, including X.
