John McClain: There’s no quarterback competition between Tom Savage, Deshaun Watson

Many people believe that Deshaun Watson will ultimately become the Texans’ starting quarterback at some point this coming season.

John McClain of the Houston Chronicle was a guest on PFT Live with Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio on Tuesday and was asked about the Texans’ quarterback competition.
