J.J. Watt can't hide his disappointment after suffering a major injury Sunday night.

The star defensive end and three-time Defensive Player of the Year sustained a tibial plateau fracture in his left leg and was officially declared out for the rest of the season Monday afternoon.

Early Monday morning, the Houston Texans defender relayed a short message to his fans via Twitter.

I can't sugarcoat it, I am devastated.
All I want to do is be out there on that field for my teammates and this city.
I'm sorry.

- JJ Watt (@JJWatt) October 9, 2017

This will be the second consecutive season cut short for Watt. He missed all but three games last season due to a back injury.
