As he opens the package, he explained: "Alright, I just got this package in the mail, so I think I know what this means. Kit reveal time. "Pretty excited to be the first to unveil the Burnley 2023/24 kit. I know you guys have all been waiting. Everybody's been waiting so let's check it out." As he opens the box, though, he is met with a t-shirt and a note reading: "JJ, we knew we couldn't trust you with the kit before we officially revealed it because you would have tweeted it to your followers. So here's one of our new t-shirts instead." Watt sees the funny side, though, as he admits: "They're not wrong. Guess I'll see it with the rest of you." Burnley have since unveiled their new home kit, which has a blue collar alongside their traditional claret and blue colours. 3 JJ Watt was instead sent a grey t-shirt Credit: instagram / jjwatt The strip will be worn for their return to the Premier League, with the Clarets kicking off the campaign at home to Manchester City on August 11.
