Houston Texans CEO Cal McNair addressed quarterback Deshaun Watson and his future with the franchise on Friday.
While speaking to reporters about the release of defensive end J.J. Watt, McNair was asked about the trade rumors surrounding Watson. Per ESPN's Adam Schefter, McNair responded with the following: "There is a lot of misinformation out there, I'll leave it at that. Today we want to focus on J.J. Deshaun is our quarterback, he is a Texan, and we expect him to remain a Texan, and we'll leave that."
Schefter (h/t ESPN's Sarah Barshop) reported last month that Watson was unhappy that the Texans didn't include him in the general manager hiring process before hiring former New England Patriots executive Nick Caserio as GM.
