Bleacher Report named Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson an "under-the-radar NFL MVP candidate."

As for why, Bleacher Report’s Maurice Moton noted Watson’s 19 touchdown passes, 1,699 passing yards, and 269 rushing yards with two touchdowns all before an ACL injury ended the former Clemson quarterback’s season.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette, Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff, Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott, and New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning also made the under-the-radar candidates list.
