Report: Texans QB Deshaun Watson Tore ACL in Practice

Deshaun WatsonDeshaun Watson’s stellar rookie season is already over over. 
Watson suffered a non-contact injury in Thursday’s practice and was diagnosed at the facility with a torn ACL, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport first reported that the team feared Watson had a torn ACL. Watson was listed as a limited participant in practice with a knee injury. 
The injury occurred on a read-option drill, Schefter reports
The injury comes less than a week after Watson’s best game of his young season. In a shootout loss to the Seahawks, Watson threw for 402 yards and four touchdowns while rushing for another 67 yards. He is the only player in NFL history to have more than 400 passing yards, 50 rushing yards and four touchdown passes in a single game. Tom Savage is the only other quarterback on the Texans’ roster. He started the first game of the season but was benched halfway through the game in favor of Watson. 
Watson has completed 61.8% of his passes for 1,699 yards with 19 touchdowns and eight interceptions this season. He has also picked up 269 yards on 36 carries and scored two touchdowns on the ground.

Monaco Grand Prix qualifying: Daniel Ricciardo on pole for Red Bull

Monaco Grand Prix qualifying: Daniel Ricciardo on pole for Red Bull Daniel Ricciardo claimed pole position for the Monaco Grand Prix after Red Bull Formula 1 team-mate Max Verstappen missed qualifying thanks to his practice crash. Ricciardo topped the first two stages of qualifying, with Verstappen unable even to take to the track thanks to damage sustained in a morning accident at the second part of Swimming Pool that forced a gearbox change, before banging in a 1m10.810s on his first run in Q3 to take top spot.

"These girls were always the same," said Kate Williams, a profes
