What happened: A high throw from Deshaun Watson was tipped and intercepted during preseason play. He stood 3-for-8 for 24 yards with one interception.

Why it matters: The turnover gives Todd Monken another live evaluation after splitting first-team work during the competition. His choice will set the offense’s hierarchy entering the 2026 regular season.

By the numbers: Watson completed 37.5% of his passes, averaging 3.0 yards per attempt and 8.0 yards per completion.

What to watch: The allocation of first-team reps will be the next marker after Monken makes his choice.
