Before Watt could say anything, Stephan A Smith quickly congratulated Watt.

Molly shocked said, “This was what I was told.”
J.J. jokingly said afterward “This is great for television.”
Molly also jokingly said, “That’s an awkward moment.”
Stephan A Smith and Mad Dog Russo started to laugh after J.J. shot down the idea he was the new co-host.
Molly would later ask J.J. if he would be interested in the gig.
J.J. replied, “There’s a number. There’s a number that can make that happen. I am open to discussion but no Pat’s a great friend, he’s been awesome to me for a long time”.
It was a funny moment but J.J. Watt will not be co-hosting the Pat McAfee Show.
