“Around the NFL” writer Nick Shook recently did a piece on the league’s Top 10 Deep Passers and Houston Texans gunslinging quarterback Deshaun Watson landed at #6 on that list.
Might we introduce you to Will Fuller? Watson really enjoyed going deep in 2019, so much that he attempted a deep pass on 14 percent of his throws in 2019 (fifth-highest in the NFL). With Fuller on the field, he has attempted a deep pass on 17 percent of his throws since 2017 (as opposed to 11 percent with Fuller off of it).
