The Texans defense didn’t have much going for it down in South Florida last Sunday and that might be an understatement. There were really two players that I thought played up to expectations and beyond. Defensive end J.J. Watt won’t like the fact that I’m singling him out as having a Watt-like ball game in a loss like this but he did make a handful of impact plays in the game.
The only other player that truly stood out was a guy many didn’t even think would see the field in 2015. Jadeveon Clowney, the Texans’ top selection in the 2014 draft, has been a bright spot amongst some truly ugly defensive action.
