A number of reports and accounts have surfaced since the end of the 2020 regular season, indicating that quarterback Deshaw Watson could exit Houston. More and more reports and accounts suggest he will never play for the Texans again.
Along the way, no one has said, reported or suggested that Watson is just bluffing or in posture.
The most eloquent person echoing Watson’s concerns is Rams Cornback and Jelen Ramsay. Appears on Huddle and flow In the podcast, Ramsay said this about Watson: “I have a strong suspicion that he will fit into the Texans uniform again. It’s too serious”
Ramsey’s condition is not speculation or information speculation. It is represented by the same agent, David Mulugetta, who handles Watson. Also, Ramsey has been there, done when it comes to participating from a team he doesn’t want to play for. It was Watson’s front row seat for the fight; At a time when Ramsay was trying to get out of Jacksonville, a photo of Watson, Ramsay and Mulugeta surfaced in Houston.
So, yes, what Watson means is what he says, even if he is left to say it in public. The Texans know, but (unless they’re just bluffing or posturing) now they’re leaning out of the game rather than maximizing their return on the trade.
When I was five, I was fascinated by the metal cover on the pilot light on the stove. I reached for my finger, ET-style, my mother kept saying, “You will burn your finger. . . . You are about to burn your finger. “And yet I was still reaching for the metal cover on the pilot light on the stove until I could touch it and burn my finger.
Basically, Texans seems to be my five year old version. We are all telling them what happens if they draw a line in the sand with Watson, but they need to experience it before they realize what is being said is true.
