There is no guarantee that former Clemson stars Deshaun Watson and Ben Boulware will be on the field at the same time when the Texans face the Panthers in Wednesday’s preseason opener in Charlotte.
Watson was a first-round pick in April’s NFL draft and is battling for Houston’s starting quarterback job. He likely will not play much into the second half before giving way to third-string quarterback Brandon Weeden.
Boulware went undrafted and is battling for one of Carolina’s last roster spots. His playing time is expected to come late in the game, when most starters will be on the sideline.
