You've gotta wonder if it's a freak accident and his durability will hold up like a guy like gurley has done or is he going to be more like rg3 with the constantly occuring injuries?

If he keeps scrambling like he has, he's likely to end up closer to the latter.

Well lucky for us it's not the same knee and he completely recovered from the first one and he's proven not just a scambling QB. He's a passer first who can buy time with his legs. He's not a Vince Young, Mike Vick or even RG3. The guy was on pace to smash all of the rookie passing records, so even if he can't run 40 yards down the field, He can still fall back on that and I bet he still has plenty of mobility to move and make ppeple miss in the backfield and buy time. He'll be fine. Hell Matt Schaub had zero mobility and arm strength and still led the league in passing yards. Athletically and talent wise Watson has him beat in spades.

The person I'd be worried about is KeKe Coutee coming out of the slot now and our new TEs.. Deshaun Watson led the league's best offense, led the league in passing and TDs when he went out..Imagine what he can do with other weapons other than just Hopkins. The speed of Fuller and Coutee is going to open up the entire field.
