It didn’t take long for Bill O’Brien to make a major move.
The Houston Texans head coach benched Tom Savage after halftime on Sunday in favor of rookie Deshaun Watson.
The Texans were down 19-0 at the half to Jacksonville and accomplishing very little on offense. Savage was just 7/13 for 62 yards and was sacked six times.
Watson is more mobile and arguably just a much better quarterback overall despite being a rookie.
Now Houston will get a chance to see what the No. 12 overall pick can do.
