Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson was named AFC Offensive Player of the Week on Tuesday after leading his team to a 28-22 victory over the Patriots on Sunday night.

Watson completed 18 of 25 passes for 234 yards and three touchdowns and also had a six-yard touchdown reception. He became just the third player in NFL history with three passing touchdowns and a receiving touchdown in a game.
