First Overall Pick Jadeveon Clowney Placed on IR

After missing six games at the beginning of the season and then returning for another short stint of playing time, Coach Bill O’Brien has announced that the first overall pick, Jadeveon Clowney, needs a second surgery on his right knee, resulting in Houston placing him on the season-ending IR.

 


Has the Houston Texans made a mistake by drafting Jadeveon Clowney first overall? Only time will tell. But the player, who many analysts called into question before 2014’s draft, will have to wow in the 2015 season to quell all the talk about being a draft bust. As for the Texans, they are still battling for a wildcard spot at 6-6, but even after their huge win against the Titans, their chances of making the playoffs is looking slim.
