Per source, Carolina is one of Deshaun Watson’s preferred destinations if traded.

Random guy in SC pretending to be a journalist probably not a solid source 

You can choose to be skeptical, but no need to insult a guy who is establishing a career for himself in journalism. I’ll be more than happy to remove the thread if that’s the case. He’s a local who has connections within the organization (which is how he managed to get an exclusive interview with Pride Jr.) and local media.

Why are people having trouble believing this. Our staff from the owner to the coach have basically said we are looking to upgrade our QB position. A 25 year old pro bowler would definitely be an upgrade and he wants to be traded. We also have an aggressive and involved owner with a new GM who would love to make a big splash. Tepper is invested heavily in this team and Watson in Carolina would be insanely marketable.

Good thread. Thanks for sharing.

Probably because the source is a kid who's apparently either still in or just barely out of high school.

I thought it was the Jets...after it was the Dolphins..

Those are the rumors because they have the draft capital + young QBs to make significant offers. Ultimately, it’s up to Watson since he has a no-trade clause.

Here's a little more established source, with a pretty rational take.

 

Of course there's high interest. Pretty sure there is high interest from every QB-needy team and a few who want to trade their current QB for a future HOFer. But JJ's "whether" is the key. That multiple question is far from settled and tbh, doesn't particularly bode well given that other teams are in much better positions to broker a deal. 

If fans want to believe Watson loves Carolina so much he'll veto every other team, no logic known to humanity will dissuade them. Personally, I would love to have him here, I just don't see it as a very likely option.

    • Nick Scott has gotten his share of Huddle hate, but I came across this SI article by Zach Roberts when I was researching recently released Quandre Diggs, speculated to be a better option  (https://lastwordonsports.com/nfl/2025/11/07/breaking-titans-cut-former-three-time-pro-bowler-quandre-diggs-4-destinations-ranked/3/), but getting back to Nick Scott... Now to be fair, the observation on Scott was before the Packers game, but the stats couldn't have changed that much, and may have gotten better.   "At some point during virtually every Carolina Panthers game, you have probably found yourself grumbling about Nick Scott. The much-maligned safety has seemingly been out of position a lot or has failed to make a play. The eye test has often let him down. "But that's why stats are so helpful. Sometimes, the eye test, especially for fans, is unreliable. On occasion, advanced metrics help make sense of things and lend more clarity. In the case of Scott, they make him look like a much better safety than any of us would've guessed. "In coverage, Scott has given up just 15 yards and an average of five yards per catch. That's the lowest among safeties, leading superstars like Julian Love, Talanoa Hafunga, Quandre Diggs, Kerby Joseph, Kyle Hamilton, and Minkah Fitzpatrick. "In FI%, the safety leads all his counterparts once again at 40%. Brian Branch, Camren Kinchens, and Xavier McKinney are some notable names he leads. He's been pretty excellent in pass coverage, which is crucial for the Panthers." For those wondering, "FI" means forced incompletions. Now I'm way past trying to figure out why X links aren't embedding for me like they used to, but here you go: https://x.com/dacornerman/status/1981363757608513632?t=rx_5iLjp8_y5huNcg_y1nA&s=19   Suffice it to say that Scott may not be as bad as some have led on.    https://www.si.com/nfl/panthers/onsi/news/much-maligned-panthers-db-way-better-than-think      
    • Nah it was Graham. I remember watching it live.
