Deshaun Watson Expected To Be Traded Before The Deadline
3 years agoThe expectation and belief is that Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson will be traded before the Nov. 2 trade deadline. Rumors spread rapidly earlier this week that the Miami Dolphins and Texans were nearing a deal for Watson, but those rumors turned out to be false. It doesn't mean that the Dolphins won't eventually trade for Watson, and multiple teams remain interested in acquiring the signal-caller, including the Carolina Panthers, Denver Broncos, the Philadelphia Eagles and others. Watson's legal issues involving 20-plus lawsuits for sexual misconduct and assault are ongoing, but he has yet to be placed on the commissioner's exempt list. It remains to be seen if Watson will play in 2021, but he's likely to be facing a lengthy suspension in 2022.
