David Culley slams the door shut on chances of Deshaun Watson playing Thursday

Welp, that didn’t take long for Deshaun Watson to be ruled out.

David Culley, the Houston Texans Head Coach has officially shut down Deshaun Watson for the third straight week. Anybody hoping to see Watson suit up for the first time this year is going to have to wait longer.

Quarterback Jeff Driskel will be elevated from the practice squad, making the true active number of quarterbacks on the Houston Texans roster at two. Culley has a mad amount of respect from his team and his coaching peers in the NFL. It’s safe to say that Watson probably wouldn’t play even if the Texans (god forbid) run out of quarterbacks in the game.
