HOUSTON — Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller was sidelined for more than eight weeks with a broken collarbone, unable to even practice until Sept. 18. And although he couldn't work on the field with rookie quarterback Deshaun Watson for most of that time, the two found time to run routes late into the evening while Fuller was rehabbing and recovering from surgery.
“[Fuller has] been able to do some drills behind the scenes," coach Bill O'Brien said. "He wasn’t cleared to practice or anything, but he could run routes and Deshaun would be there with him right here in the stadium after hours, so to speak, and throwing routes with him.
