Will JJ Watt pull an inverted Hayne and leaving his NFL career at his prime to play rugby? Would he make it?

dont mean to say rugby players a re better, but it's more versatile -- nfls more specialized.

Hayne came from League, which is more athletic rather than technical, so he'd have a better chance in that. His weakness would be passing and instinct and endurance -- pretty much the key elements in the game. But sure, he's a good enough athlete.

If he'd grown up with the sport he'd be good.

He would have to shed some weight so he has better endurance

He would be about as successful as Jarryd has been.

He would be worse than Hayne. There's nothing that Watt does that translates into rugby, apart from being a freak athlete. He would have to learn the whole game from scratch.

At least for Hayne punt returns are similar to what he does best.

Abbot can manage, I don't think anyone else would have a problem

Abos make for surprisingly good playmakers tbh. Mostly because they do nothing but play it from a young age so they can read a defence like most can't.

Watt would be garbage as he'd have no idea what he was doing. The most you could do would be to shove him on the wing, even then he'd just get exposed when teams started kicking to him.
