FORTY-NINE YARD TOUCHDOWN RUN! #Texans #TNF pic.twitter.com/cpo5o71D6l
Welcome to the NFL, Deshaun Watson!
In his debut as the starter against the Cincinnati Bengals, Watson showed why he was one of the most decorated collegiate players in recent memory, gliding through the opposition for a 49-yard touchdown run.
Watson emerged as the Houston Texans' starter after Tom Savage was benched for poor performance following a Week 1 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
The rookie is already making history. Watson's 49-yard touchdown run is the longest by a quarterback since Marcus Mariota scampered for 87 yards in 2015.
