Deshaun Watson
Deshaun Watson’s three years at Clemson University culminated in a victory at the 2017 College Football Playoff National Championship, where the quarterback led the Tigers over Alabama to his second national championship win. Declaring for the 2012 NFL Draft, Watson was chosen with the No. 12 overall pick by the Houston Texans.
In his first season, the Georgia native set the record for the most passing touchdowns in a calendar month by a rookie quarterback (16). Watson has yet to depart his original team despite requesting a trade in 2020. In 2021, the quarterback was accused of sexual assault, resulting in 22 women filing lawsuits against the 26-year-old.
