A veteran like T.J. Watt has seen it all. Except a left-handed quarterback. That makes Dillon Gabriel a unicorn in Watt’s career. Not that it’s going to change his approach much.
“This would be the first lefty quarterback I’ve ever played in my life,” Watt told reporters Friday afternoon via the team’s YouTube channel. “It’s interesting. We don’t have a scout lefty either, so it’ll be different on game day.”
Left-handed quarterbacks are uncommon. The NFL only has three such starters: the Atlanta Falcons’ Michael Penix Jr., the Miami Dolphins’ Tua Tagovailoa, and now the Browns’ Gabriel.
