3. Keke Coutee

What to watch for with Keke Coutee is the health of the wide receiver. Coutee has played in games this season and has played very well at times, but an injury to his hamstring has also hampered his rookie season. Coutee was listed as questionable all week after having to leaving last week’s win over the Tennessee Titans with the same hamstring issue.

If Coutee is able to play on Sunday he’ll be a difference maker, because if he’s able to play up to his top speed, Deshaun Watson will get him the football and make things happen.

2. Ryan Griffin

Here is another player where injuries have hampered a season for an offensive player. Tight end Ryan Griffin who has played in nine games this season with 14 receptions (31 targets) for 191 yards and no touchdowns.

Griffin is a solid player for the Texans, but more will be needed from him moving forward if the Texans really want to be contenders with their offense. The Texas need string tight end play as the season rolls along. If Griffin can do so starting against the Browns, he’ll only help make the team better. That alone makes him a must-watch player for Week 13.
