VIDEO: Deshaun Watson Races 21 Yards for Opening TD on 4th Down
By Jerry Trotta

Rather than be sure of taking a lead on the road and kicking a field goal, Houston Texas head coach Bill O'Brien opted to take the audacious route by going for a 4th and 1 just outside the red zone against the New Orleans Saints. They called a design run for star quarterback Deshaun Watson, and Sean Payton's defense had no response. The Clemson product went untouched until he reached the five yard line, where he had to leap into the end zone to dodge a tackle.

Anybody else not the least bit surprised that Watson ended up scoring on this play?
It's just a testament to his supreme playmaking ability.

The Pro Bowler did, however, get banged up on the play and had to undergo some tests in Houston's medical tent. For now, however, he's back on the field and doing his thing.
