HOUSTON -- Every night when Houston Texans coach Bill O’Brien sends out the daily game plans to his quarterbacks, Deshaun Watson’s email lights up, and so does Watson.

Even though the rookie quarterback is recovering from surgery after he tore his ACL on Nov. 2, Watson is still “very involved” in what the Texans’ offense is doing even if he cannot be on the field or in every meeting.

“He’s still watching the tape,” O’Brien said. “I’m talking to him about what he sees ... moving forward. Next week’s game, I want him preparing like he would be getting ready to play.
