The Houston Texans have only existed for twenty years, so with a young franchise, we have young talent to crown as their greatest athlete to date. While Andre Johnson did play the majority of his fourteen-year career with the Texans and become a 7x Pro Bowler, defensive end, Justin James Watt is taking the title for the Houston Texans. In a where lprotecting offensive players has become a focal point, J. J. Watt still strikes fear into quarterbacks and running backs alike. His agility and brute force terrorizes offensive linemen night in and night out when he's on the field.
After just two seasons of collegiate football at the University of Wisconsin, Watt was prepared to begin his NFL career. The 6'5, 290lbs defensive lineman was selected 11th overall by the Houston Texans in the 2011 NFL Draft and has been a member of the organization ever since. In just nine seasons with the team, Watt is responsible for 468 tackles and 95 sacks. With the season currently in play those numbers are only going to increase for the 5x Pro Bowler and 3x NFL Defensive Player of the Year. The sky is the limit for J. J. Watt as of now, all he has to do is remain healthy and the Hall of Fame will be calling his name.
In the US, the average spent on an engagement ring is $6,351 but how do these figures compare with our favorite celebrities? The answer: they don't. As the diamonds increase in size, obviously the price tag appreciates handsomely. Well, we've compiled a list of some of the most expensive celebrity engagement rings.
This list would be nothing without Kim Kardashian's rock from Kanye, which clocked in at around a cool $4 million when he presented it to her at his stadium proposal in October 2013. Unfortunately, though, the 15-carat sparkler was among the jewelry stolen during Kim's infamous Paris robbery in 2016.
Jennifer Lopez's husband Alex Rodriguez popped the question to the singer, and he really had to step it up to outshine her previous engagement rings—and wow, did he deliver. The baseball star proposed with a reported 15-20 carat emerald cut stunner set on a platinum band that was estimated at $5 million. It's getting harder and harder not to be fooled by the rocks she's got...
It should come as no surprise that Beyonce herself totes one of the world's highest-valued diamonds. Weighing in at 24 carats, Jay reportedly paid around $5 million (now worth $6,047,013) for Bey's flashy emerald-cut ring back in 2008.
Anna Kournikova's relationship Latin music artist Enrique Iglesias since the early '00s has been one of the most lowkey celebrity relationships to date. That is with the exception of her $5,400,000 engagement ring that made headlines in 2004. Now, worth a whopping $7,443,596, the giant yellow stunner was spotted on Kournikova even during her tennis matches. (Pssst! It's rumored she got two rings from Iglesias. Prior to this, she sported an equally giant pink pear-shaped ring.)
Clocking in as the most expensive celebrity engagement ring, Mariah Carey's 35-carat bling from ex-fiancé James Packer reportedly cost a cool $10 million. And the "Obsessed" singer seemed to be a bit, well, obsessed with the jewel. She continued to wear the ring over a year post-breakup, and didn't part ways with the bauble until May 2018, selling it to a Los Angeles jeweler for $2.1 million.
