Deshaun Watson suffers season-ending ACL injury, Texans sign Matt McGloin

The Houston Texans suffered a devastating loss on Thursday, as quarterback Deshaun Watson suffered a torn ACL on a non-contact play. He is done for the season, and quarterback Tom Savage returns to the starting lineup. Houston signed Matt McGloin to serve as his backup.

The 49ers travel to face the Texans in Week 14, and what was looking like a sure loss is now a bit more of a toss-up. The Texans still have a strong defense, but their offense takes a huge hit with this loss.
