Houston Texans star J.J. Watt has raised more than $14 million for Hurricane Harvey flood victims – far surpassing his initial fundraising goal of $200,000.

The defensive end started his campaign on Sunday. And the money has not stopped coming in.

Watt said in an earlier video on Twitter he has trucks with supplies, including water, food, clothing, generators and cleaning products, set to head to the city.

"Houston, we're thinking of you," Watt said.
