Texans WR Kayshon Boutte named PFF's top-graded playmaker in Week 9

The love for Houston Texans wide receiver Kayshon Boutte continues as Week 9 comes to a close.

Houston Texans wide receiver Kayshon Boutte has been named Pro Football Focus' top-graded playmaker for Week 9, as the team secured a 44-22 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers. The 93.9 grade marked the third-highest for any receiver this season. Houston head coach DeMeco Ryans expressed satisfaction, noting that Boutte had been working with the offense to give him a chance to score touchdowns, which he achieved on Sunday.

Prior to this performance, Boutte had been a non-factor in Houston's offense. In Week 9, Boutte recorded four receptions for 125 yards and two touchdowns, including a 63-yard touchdown run, which was the longest touchdown for the Texans in the season.
