HOUSTON -- With 3 minutes, 45 seconds left in regulation and the Houston Texans leading by two points on Sunday, wide receiver Demaryius Thomas heard the third-down playcall from quarterback Deshaun Watson.
Just five days after he was traded to the Texans from the Denver Broncos -- Houston's opponent on Sunday in its 19-17 victory -- Thomas was still learning the Texans' playbook and trying to help his new team out on the fly. In his confusion, he committed a false start on third-and-5 at the Houston 40-yard line.
