The Deshaun Watson saga endures in Houston. The entire situation has become a major talking point among fans and analysts alike.
The player recently demanded a trade from the franchise that he called home for several years. And after the Texans granted JJ Watt his release, many believed that Watson would get his wish and finally be able to jump ship.

“He said, McNair, that there’s a lot of misinformation out there involving Deshaun Watson. And that’s he’s a Texan and they expect him to be there.
