I'm guessing that was promised during extension negotiations. [Reply]

Watson's feelings were not directed toward Caserio, sources told ESPN, but instead were indicative of the way business was again conducted by the Texans.
Last offseason, Houston didn't let Watson know that star wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins would be traded, which led to some disappointment. Now that it has happened again, Watson is said to be infinitely more bothered, sources told ESPN.
It always starts with Shitty ownership. I have know idea why Easterbys still around?? The McNairs suck.

Lots of times franchise players have input especially if they're going to move someone.
Or at least the courtesy to let them know before it's on ESPN. [Reply]

Watson can pull a Carson Palmer and threaten to retire. Again no coach should want to go to that hell hole after what they just did.
Watson has already made a shit ton of money from his signing bonus and can also threaten to sit out next year if he’s not traded. I know I would.
Wasn’t bob mcnair the one that made racist comments? The McNairs may not be the most self aware [Reply]
