Report: Texans Not Trading Deshaun Watson Ahead of Tuesday Deadline

The Texans are not trading quarterback Deshaun Watson ahead of Tuesday afternoon's NFL trade deadline, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, while the Dolphins did their due diligence on a potential Watson deal, team owner, Stephen Ross, made the final decision not to acquire the Houston quarterback.

According to Yahoo Sports' Charles Robinson, the Dolphins were interested in making a deal that included a contingency of Watson resolving his outstanding civil lawsuits, which would have required a global settlement. Watson not settling his legal situation has resulted in him not getting traded, NFL Network reports.
