J.J. Watt’s free agency has turned into a whirlwind of conspiracies from people trying to figure out where he will land. Although most of these theories are created out of good lighthearted fun, Watt was forced to dead some rumors once they started to get out of hand. 

Prior to his announcement, an image of Watt’s supposed Peloton profile surfaced reading: “SB56…GB…CLE…BUF.” Of course, this led fans to believe that Watt is gearing up to sign with either the Packers, Bills, or Browns. 

J.J. Watt has updated his Peloton bio and it now reads: “SB56...GB...CLE...BUF”

If nothing else, JJ has us all dialed in.

Have suspected all along @browns have the best offer cash wise on the table. The idea of playing opposite @MylesLGarrett also a major selling point. Will see if it’s enough. https://t.co/B1oD52gtdy

Looks like I'll soon be adding a Peloton to the expense report for #investigativejournalism purposes https://t.co/L99NLZ3ZiC

Before things got even more out of hand, Watt took to Twitter where he told his fans and followers that he doesn’t even own a Peloton exercise bike.
