Things seem to be accelerating since the criminal justice decided not to prosecute Deshaun Watson.
According to NFL Network, the Panthers and Saints each made an offer to the Texans to get the quarterback.
Carolina has been linked to Watson for a long time. But for New Orleans, this is the first time they’ve emerged as a serious lead. According to Pro Football Network, the leaders of the Saints would even be “extremely” serious. That’s good, because ESPN specifies that on Carolina’s side, we are going to be “aggressive” in this operation. Our colleagues also announce that the Seahawks should be among the most serious contenders. The Steelers, Eagles, Colts and Browns would also be interested.
Houston would still claim at least three first-round picks, other picks, and at least one player in exchange for No. 4.
The following ? Watson has a clause that allows him to refuse any trade. In short: he can choose his destination. According to NFL Media, he would like to meet with interested teams before making a decision.
Meanwhile, Watson is due to testify on Tuesday in the 22 civil lawsuits filed against him.
