3 Potential Destinations for Texans QB Deshaun Watson

The Deshaun Watson saga in Houston will soon be over as the quarterback is expected to be dealt before the November 2nd trade deadline. The discussions have picked up this week and it's likely a deal goes down sometime this upcoming weekend.

3 Potential Destinations for Watson

Miami Dolphins: Yes, the Dolphins and Texans have chatted but to this point the Dolphins are reluctant to make the deal because of optics. You can't blame them really, considering there's 22 lawsuits ongoing about Watson's treatment of women. The Texans would need to sweeten the pot for Miami to agree and at this point that doesn't seem likely.

#Dolphins owner Stephen Ross laughed when he saw reporters waiting for him at the league meeting: “I know what it’s about and I’m not dealing with it.” And that was it.

Carolina Panthers: The Sam Darnold experiment could be coming to a close. The Panthers are in the market for an upgrade and some people forget Watson led the NFL in a ton of quarterback categories last season. Again, it's risky and the Panthers will want a condition in the deal to agree. Perhaps something to do with playing time or game appearances in case Watson's court problems get the best of his playing career.

Denver Broncos: The Broncos are a dark horse, no pun intended. The team has been in contact with the Texans but word is they did not advance and no players or draft picks were discussed. Keep an eye on the Broncos, as they could surprise before November 2.
