Texans GM’s Latest Comment All But Confirms Deshaun Watson’s Future

When will Deshaun Watson finally get a change of scenery?

Watson’s future is no more clear now than it was a month ago, or even six months ago.

But this week Texans general manager Nick Caserio gave us the closest thing to an update that we’ve heard in quite awhile.

On Sports Radio 610, the Texans GM said it “more than likely would not be the case” that Watson plays another down for the Texans. He left the door open ever so slightly, but it seems that the Texans as an organization are done with Watson.

“I think we have to be open-minded and just take the information and process it and ultimately make the decision that we feel makes the most sense for everybody involved, whatever that looks like,” Caserio said via NFL.com.

Caserio told Sports Radio 610 that he’s open to trading  the #3  pick to another team.

“Absolutely. Always open for business. You never want to limit yourself,” Caserio said about trading their first-round pick. “I’ve always been open-minded when it comes to the draft. … Every team and every individual has a different philosophy. ‘We’re not gonna trade, we’re always going to pick, we’re not going to move.’ I think we’re a little bit more open-minded, progressive thinking, move up and down. And it’s not just move to move.”

The Texans won’t be able to move forward until they part ways with Watson.

Hopefully we can all move on soon enough…
