Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson is reportedly "aware" a trade to the New York Jets would leave the team with limited financial flexibility to upgrade the roster around him.
Jayson Jenks and Aaron Reiss of The Athletic reported Thursday that Watson is "open to other teams" despite frequent links to the Jets and Miami Dolphins, but the Texans remain unwilling to engage in serious talks with other front offices despite the quarterback's trade request.
The Detroit Lions and Los Angeles Rams shook up the NFL landscape when the teams agreed to swap quarterbacks Matthew Stafford and Jared Goff, while the Lions also received two first-round picks and a third-rounder in the deal.
