DeAndre Hopkins made a catch that will be talked about for years to come, hauling in a last-second prayer from Kyler Murray to defeat the Buffalo Bills. It was such an absurd play that people are still talking about it days later.
Deshaun Watson, who spent several years as Hopkins’ teammate on the Houston Texans, was asked if he witnessed that miraculous touchdown play.
“I mean, that’s just Hop,” Watson said. “No surprise. That’s a guy that does that on the daily basis. That’s what he’s known for, being legendary in legendary moments. He made a great play for them and he got them the W.”
He would never admit it publicly, but you just know that Watson is still upset to not have that guy on his team anymore.
Those two had many more years to give to each other, but former Texans head coach Bill O’Brien foolishly traded away Hopkins for David Johnson and some draft picks.
