HOUSTON -- When Nick Caserio took over as general manager of the Houston Texans, he inherited a team without an early draft pick, several bloated contracts on the roster and little promising young talent.
While Caserio was saying publicly -- and privately -- in January the team had no intention of trading Deshaun Watson despite his request for one, all of the above could have been fixed if he had decided to move the franchise quarterback -- for the right price, of course.
Now the conversation has drastically changed and the prospect of trading Watson is on hold for the time being with Watson facing lawsuits alleging assault and harassment from 22 women.
