ESPN reporter believes Texans may be close to moving on from Watson

Things have gone quiet with the Deshaun Watson saga the last couple of weeks, at least between the lawyers that are dealing with the former Clemson quarterback’s civil case.

However, when it comes to Watson’s trade request out of Houston, news is starting to leak that the Texans are slowly moving on from their former first-round draft pick.

“Teams I’ve talked to around the league are taking notice that the Houston Texans seem to be slowly moving on from Deshaun Watson,” ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler said on SportsCenter Sunday.

Those moves consisted of bringing on NFL veteran quarterback Tyrod Taylor in free agency and then drafting Stanford quarterback Davis Mills in the third round of the 2021 NFL Draft.
