Houston Texans star J.J. Watt just about crashed the internet in Houston when he tweeted that the Texans defensive tackle D.J. Reader doesn’t believe in dinosaurs. The defensive end wrote, “Our lockers have been next to each other for over a year, and I just found out [D.J.] doesn’t believe in dinosaurs. Says fossils are fake.”

Reader’s mentions piled up, with people calling him “uneducated” and suggesting Watt take him to a museum.

Poor D.J. is going to have a tough day on Twitter defending his theories. At one point, he said that he believes climate change is “due to the earth’s rotation.” Thankfully, Reader is good enough at football that he won’t have to take a job as a paleontologist anytime soon.
