Houston Texans QB Deshaun Watson has been one of the most exciting players to watch in the NFL this season. However, his rookie campaign will end far too soon due to him tearing his ACL in practice on Wednesday.

The electrifying rookie was just named the AFC Offensive Player of the Month for October. Now, the league and its fans must wait until next season to watch the former Clemson star work magic on the field.

Watson's NFL peers took to social media to offer their prayers and best wishes for a speedy recovery:

Minor setback for a major comeback.
