Deshaun Watson officially has requested a trade from the Houston Texans, per league sources. He actually did it weeks ago. Their new head-coaching hire, David Culley, has not and will not alter Watson’s thinking.
The dude seems locked in on getting out of there. They might call his bluff but do you really wanna keep a guy around who wants to leave that bad?
They should get 4+ first rounders at minimum IMO. Which at that point, the team trading for him may be handicapping themselves a bit too much to build a consistent top 5 team. [Reply]
He's a great player, and what a shit show the Texans have become.
Less than two years ago they make a slew of "win now" trades, and in the process destroy the team. I mean if they had just kept Hopkins they are a contender every year. Stunning. [Reply]
