CBS’ JJ Watt Fires Shorts at Fox Sports Over World Series Coverage
After signing a multi-year deal with CBS, JJ Watt called out FOX for a lengthy pregame production before World Series Game 1. NFL legend JJ Watt has criticized Fox Sports' World Series coverage for its lengthy pregame production, which included over 300 people and a lengthy introduction to the Milwaukee Brewers and Tampa Bay Rays game on October 23, for being a "very long intro" for the players.

Despite this, Watt recently signed a multi-year deal with CBS and will continue covering the 2026 NFL season and the Super Bowl for CBS in 2028.
