Deshaun Watson. 14. player. 10. . QB. (2017-Present)

Some of you may be outraged that Deshaun Watson is this low on this list because he’s the most talented quarterback to put on the deep steel blue. Some of you may be outraged that he is this high on this list, as he’s only played a year and a half of professional football.

However, both of those things ring true which is why he lands at No. 14 on this list. Watson is, without a doubt, the most talented quarterback to ever put on a Texans uniform. He has proved that in just 16 games of professional football. However, there’s no way he could climb this list with only 16 games of professional football under his belt.

Watson took the NFL by storm in his rookie, despite somehow not beginning the season as the starting quarterback. He put on stellar performance after stellar performance until he tore his ACL. While not the most gruesome of injuries, there were concerns on how he would return considering his style of play.

Well, he answered those questions in a resounding way and showed incredible improvement for the season overall and during the season. There is no doubt in my mind the Texans have found their franchise quarterback and that Watson will rapidly climb this list with each coming season.
