NEW YORK, NY – Moments after learning he finished third in the 2015 Heisman Trophy balloting, Deshaun Watson took a moment to look over a railing on the ninth floor of the Marriott Marquis and looked over into a restaurant a floor below. A group of diners noticed the lone figure, and a cheer and applause broke out as they recognized who they were seeing.
Amidst the applause, one man stood up and said, “You deserved it, but now go win the national title. That’s the most important thing, right?”
Watson smiled his trademark smiled and gave the diner a thumbs-up before meeting with more fans on the concourse behind him, thoughts of winning a national title still on his mind.
