How do the Texans replace J.J. Watt?
How do the Texans replace J.J. Watt and improve a defense that struggled last season? Aaron Reiss looks at Houston's options:
“Not only did Watt lead the team in sacks (5.0) and QB hits (17), he also had 14 TFLs, which doubled the next-closest Texans defender, inside linebacker Zach Cunningham. The 2020 Texans had the fourth-worst defense since 2000, according to TruMedia’s EPA per play data. They might be even worse in 2021, but they won’t simply be a Watt-less version of last season’s unit. There should be a lot of turnover on this portion of the roster.”
