The famous Armon Watts is an American football defensive end for the Chicago Bears of the National Football League. He played college football at Arkansas.
Watts was projected to be a starter for Minnesota heading into the 2022 season. But with Kevin O’Connell taking over as head coach, the Vikings transitioned from a 4-3 to a 3-4 scheme. Watts’ skillset makes him more impactful in a 4-3 scheme like the Bears employ. Still, going from a rotational player to an expected starter, his cut was shocking.
On November 10, 2019, Watts combined for a sack of Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott with teammate Everson Griffen in a 28-24 win on Sunday Night Football. It was his first career game. He was placed on injured reserve on December 31, 2019.
