What the...? On the bright side, three other Texans made the list despite being unranked last year.
Pro Football Focus has released their annual list of the NFL’s Top 101 Players (based on the 2015 season alone), and for the first time in four years, the top ranked player is not J.J. Watt. Four total Texans made the list, and they were all the names you may have expected – Watt, DeAndre Hopkins, Johnathan Joseph, and Whitney Mercilus. Without any of those names being on Houston’s roster last year, this ball club would have had no chance at making the playoffs in 2015.
