The Houston Texans have a dangerous combination in the passing game with quarterback Deshaun Watson and receiver DeAndre Hopkins, and the Clemson Tiger duo proved it once more Thursday night against the Indianapolis Colts at NRG Stadium.
After the two-minute warning, Watson stood down an incoming blitz from the Colts and saw Hopkins streaking down the post. Obviously a busted coverage, the Pro Bowl signal caller heaved a deep ball for the two-time All-Pro that looked more like a punt return than a pass play.
