Former Arizona Cardinals DE J.J. Watt has occupied plenty of roles since entering the league as a first-round pick in the 2011 NFL Draft. 

It's a laundry list of accolades involving everything from stat accumulation to awards such as All-Pro, Pro Bowl and NFL Defensive Player of the Year. 

Lately, he's picked up titles such as father, owner of a Premier League club and CBS Sports NFL analyst. 

Yet Watt continued to add to his resume on Tuesday with an appearance on the Wheaties cereal box alongside brother and Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt. 

"The Wheaties box is iconic. Truly honored to be on the cover of the newest box (even if I do have to share it with knucklehead). It’s a pretty special day for us and we’re very excited about being able to share it with you. Go grab yours starting in August!" said Watt on Twitter. 

Full clip in the tweet below:

The Watt brothers share the same cereal box, and they nearly shared the same field as teammates.

Before signing with the Cardinals in free agency, Watt says he seriously considered signing with Pittsburgh:

"They were [on the list]. It certainly would have been awesome to play with my brothers, but T.J. was also going through the contract situation there, so the last thing I wanted to do was come in and take any money away from his contract," Watt said (h/t All Steelers). 

Though they share the same last name, now they can share a piece of history as the first duo of brothers to be featured on a Wheaties box.
