On January 24th, ESPN NFL Insider Chris Mortensen reported that Deshaun Watson is expected to want out of Houston regardless of who the head coaching hire will be, dealing a fatal blow to any who thought the hire of Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bienemy would save this relationship.
As @mortreport reported on ESPN’s Postseason NFL Countdown, the Texans' head coaching hire is not expected to change Deshaun Watson's thinking. He still is expected to want out of Houston, no matter who the head coach is, per sources.

If these reports are true, then the fact this information has gotten to the public is confirmation that Deshaun Watson will no longer be a quarterback for the Houston Texans.
