Texans' Deshaun Watson makes option play click on Keke Coutee TD
INDIANAPOLIS - Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson is accustomed to making fast decisions.
He had to hurry up on a red-zone option play where he faked a handoff to running back Carlos Hyde and pitched it to motioning wide receiver Keke Coutee for a 4-yard touchdown during a 30-23 loss.
It was the Texans' first score of the game and Coutee's first touchdown of the season.
“Yeah, I just kind of reacted," Watson said. "The safety came hard and I hopped off, but he was still in my way. The fastest route – I didn’t want to throw it over because the guy could have jumped up or something.
