Watt is being honoured by the NFL Players Association after raising more than $29 million US for Hurricane Harvey relief efforts.</p><p>Watt was named the NFLPA&#x27;s Community MVP on Friday for his work in the days since the hurricane and flooding devastated Houston and much of southeast Texas.</p><p>Watt announced the fundraising page with a video on Twitter after Houston&#x27;s pre-season game against the Saints in Aug. 26, with a goal of collecting $200,000. As donations kept pouring in, he raised the goal again and again. The number skyrocketed thanks to almost 200,000 donors including Jimmy Fallon, Ellen DeGeneres, Drake and Houston Rockets guard Chris Paul.</p><p>Watt also worked with his foundation to fill 12 semi-trucks with supplies, which were brought to Houston and distributed in part by Watt and his teammates on Sunday.</p><p>The NFLPA will contribute $10,000 to Watt&#x27;s foundation for the honor. He becomes a semifinalist for the Byron Whizzer White Award, given annually by the group to recognize charitable efforts of players.</p></span></div></div><div class="contentFeedback"><div class="journalistStandards"><a class="journalistLink" href="http://www.cbc.radio-canada.ca/en/reporting-to-canadians/acts-and-policies/programming/journalism/">CBC&#x27;s Journalistic Standards and Practices</a></div></div><div class="relatedlinks sclt-relatedlinks"><h3 class="sectionTitle"><span class="sectionTitleText">Related Stories</span></h3><ul class="relatedList"><div class="relatedStory"><li class="relatedListItem"><a class="relatedLink" href="/sports/football/nfl/nfl-season-preview-2017-1.4278812"><div class="label $$typeof type props flag"><span class="labelText label-preview">Preview</span></div> <!-- -->NFL 2017: Patriots still the team to beat</a></li><li class="relatedListItem"><a class="relatedLink" href="/news/entertainment/celebs-harvey-relief-1.4266898"> <!-- -->Beyoncé, J.J.
