The Atlanta Falcons' front office would reportedly be "surprised" if it doesn't land Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson in a blockbuster trade because of "mutual interest."
CBS Sports' Josina Anderson reported Friday that Falcons executives received clearance to work toward finalizing a deal for Watson, which is also likely to include a restructured contract for the three-time Pro Bowl selection.
Watson trade talks have heated up since a Texas grand jury declined to indict him last week on charges related to allegations of sexual assault and misconduct made by women he hired to provide massage services.
