"Tell me you love me." Guillermo keeps his quarterback loose

Offensive coordinator Tony Elliott told the media last week that he depends on his junior center to keep the offense humming smoothly, saying that Guillermo’s humor and affable nature puts everyone at ease. That includes his quarterback.

Sophomore Deshaun Watson is lauded for his calm demeanor on and off the field, shaking off turnovers and bad plays with a shrug of his shoulders and a smile. However, Guillermo admitted Monday that there are times when Watson gets frustrated, and that’s when drastic measures have to be taken because the entire offense takes it cue from its quarterback.
