T.J. Watt used the perfect GIF to react to J.J. Watt's surprising retirement announcement

J.J. Watt surprised the NFL world Tuesday morning when he announced on social media that he will be retiring at the end of this season.

During his 12-year career, Watt has had a lot of fun pumping up his younger brothers, T.J. and Derek, who are currently teammates with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

T.J., of course, is the reigning Defensive Player of the Year — an award J.J. has won three times — and has learned a lot from his brother over the years.

He had a perfect reaction to the news, posting just a GIF from NBC TV series "The Office" in response to his brother's melancholy tweet. The GIF captures a teary-eyed Michael Scott smiling at another off-screen character during his last day at Dunder Mifflin.

Yup, he nailed that one.
