Texans star defensive end J.J. Watt took a drop on the NFL Network top 100 players list, his lowest ranking in the annual player balloting.
The three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year was ranked 35th overall on the list following an injury-plagued season during which he underwent two microdiscectomy surgeries to repair a herniated disk in his back.
Watt previously ranked third overall in 2016, first overall in 2015, 12th in 2014 and fifth in 2013.
Watt was limited to just three games and was limited to eight tackles and 1 1/2 sacks.
