Watson has appeared in just 19 of 85 possible games over five-plus seasons due to injuries and suspension.

Watson has played in only 19 of a possible 85 games in five-plus seasons due to multiple setbacks: he didn't play last season while rehabbing from a second tear to his right Achilles tendon following a rupture that ended his 2024 season; he also missed time from a 2023 shoulder injury and surgery, an 11-game NFL suspension, and being shut down by Houston for the entire 2021 campaign.
