If JJ Watt has any brains he'll hang up his cleats and retire from the NFL. As long as the league continues to push the jab and boosters then he's in serious danger. This episode was just a warning. He's lucky he's still alive. Probably his vigorous workouts was the only thing that saved him. But, as long as he keeps getting boosters then he's at risk of a more serious cardiac episode.

Makes you wonder if the Tua concussion imbroglio isn't a cover for his heart going into afib. He showed all the classic signs after the first hit. Nearly fainting on the field and unable to walk off. Then the second hit sent him into fibrillation again. Conjecture on my part? Why else would they have cleared him to play a couple if days later other than his afib stopped. If the Tua suffered two severe concussions that close together than for all intents and purposes his NFL career should be over. Since the damage to his brain is irreparable.

Honestly, it'll probably take multiple players dying on the field for the NFL to see the light of day. Either that or a class action lawsuit brought by NFL players and team staff against the NFL league for forcing an untested and unapproved by the FDA vaccine onto everybody in the league. I think we've already seen some near deaths so far this season on the field with Tua being one of them as you pointed out in your post. But, once someone's heart starts going into Afib your career in the NFL should be over as almost anything can trigger it to go into Afib again. At least with a concussion you can live for years after the initial hit. Afib can trigger sudden cardiac death. Google: Sudden Cardiac Death in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation.

But he's "eternally grateful" that he's "fully vaccinated" and his heart attack would have been much worse had he not been so.
