Houston Texans defensive end JJ Watt has offered to pay for the funerals of the victims of the Texas high school shooting, according to a Houston Texans spokeswoman.

Ten people were killed and 10 others wounded when a 17-year-old entered Santa Fe High School and reportedly began shooting Friday.

Shortly after the news broke, Watt tweeted:

As ESPN.com reports, “Watt has been active in the surrounding community since he was drafted by Houston in 2011. Most notably, he started a fundraiser last August that raised more than $37 million for those affected by the flooding from Hurricane Harvey.
