Former Washington Redskins Pro Bowl linebacker LaVar Arrington was a terror for several years in the NFL, and by the looks of his Halloween costume, he hopes to resurrect that fear.

Arrington went on NFL Network's NFL AM show Friday morning dressed as two-time All-Pro Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt. Specifically, he chose to dress as Watt immediately after he had split open his nose, which occurred during a 2013 game vs. the Seattle Seahawks.

Arrington wanted to make clear to Twitter followers that he did not dress in "white face," but rather had lightened his face with makeup to increase contrast for the fake blood.

Just so it's clear I have lighter makeup not white face, cosmetic for the blood on my nose to show up better. It clearly isn't white makeup
