Watch: Texans' Deshaun Watson Surprises Mom With House Renovations
HOUSTON — Deshaun Watson's mother spent years encouraging him to chase his dreams.
Now that Watson has achieved one of his biggest goals of reaching the NFL, the Houston Texans quarterback is giving back to her by renovating the home he grew up in.
"She is my rock, my hero," Watson said. "She always was there giving 100 percent each and every day to try to be the best she can be to help her kids be successful."
It's been well-documented that the Watson family received a home from Habitat For Humanity when Deshaun was 11 years old in Gainesville, Ga. His mother still lives in that house, but now that he's receiving NFL paychecks he decided it was time to spruce it up.
