Will Fuller Impresses In Debut


In his very first game in the National Football League, Texans rookie, Will Fuller has an exceptional game that he'll probably never forget reeling in five receptions for 107 yards and a touchdown.

Fuller, the no.21 draft selection in the 2016 NFL draft, was the second receiver taken in the draft (Corey Coleman was drafted at no.15). Coming out of Notre Dame Fuller was known for being a speedster and a big-play threat, but his route-running ability was still an unknown. In his last two seasons at Notre Dame, Fuller had back-to-back seasons with 1,000-yard and double-digit touchdown seasons. He has done something that not even players like A.J. Green, Dez Bryant, Julio Jones or Antonio Brown have done in their first game.

It's obvious that Fuller has the chance to be special and it's even more obvious that the Texans noticed this during the NFL draft when they selected him in the first round. The Texans start off their season at 1-0 with the huge 23-14 victory over the Chicago Bears and Fuller was one of the big reasons they walked away with the victory. Fuller and the Texans have a bigger test in week 2 as they take on the Kansas City Chiefs, a rematch from the playoffs last season. The Chiefs won in convincing fashion the last time these teams met on the field. However, Fuller hopes to be the difference-maker and help the Texans get off to a 2-0 start and maybe even more...
