Saying the Texans are behind this is insanity. They had a highly valuable asset that they would have gotten a franchise changing return for and now have somebody who no team will touch (at least for the time being).

 

There's no way a team will trade for him until and unless this situation works itself out in a positive way for Watson. If he is found to have done all or some of these things that are being alleged, his NFL future is definitely going to be questionable.

Everything the Texans have been doing over the past year or two has been insanity. This would be par for the course.

Let’s see what the Texans do. If this is true then they should cut him. If they just sit back quietly and do nothing then I’d expect to see this disappear. If I were the Panthers I’d be doing my own investigation while we wait to see what happens. I also think you can’t underestimate what a guy like McNair values. I’d bet he values his absolute power over draft picks or a player- even a star like Deshaun. He could easily have chosen the nuclear option here. However, if it turns out to be true then Deshaun will rightly deserve his punishment and likely be out of the league (for now knowing the NFL)

This is not as cut and dry as it seems. Escorts often advertise themselves as massage therapists and stuff to avoid legal troubles. I am assuming that by the time they got to him that would all be cleared up though.

That's the old school Robert Kraft stuff. The sex work industry lives openly on Instagram and OnlyFans now and that's just what's above ground. High class escorts aren't covering as massage therapist much anymore because they don't have to.

People should let this play out and stop jumping to any conclusions. With the issue existing all yo often in this country, we should take any accusation seriously. We should also realize that Deshaun is innocent until proven guilty. It is very odd when one woman comes out, then next thing you know you have multiple women following suite against an athlete that obviously has money to be made. I always take the allegations seriously, but also am like where were these other women on the past?

It’s better for Houston to sit back and let the NFL exempt him and the then cut him. That way they are off the hook for the cap and dead money. So that’s the first thing that’s going to happen.

The thing about all of this is is that there's no evidence, just he said, she said stuff, that's why it's civil and not criminal.  No one will really ever know what happened except those involved and that's enough to damage anyone's career, especially someone in the public eye......

The timing is crazy as all hell.  The fact it went from refusing to pay a settlement for harassment to rape allegations and who knows what else is concerning on so many levels.

I'm withholding judgment on the situation because the timing and connections are unreal, but this isn't looking good for Watson.

Why would they ever cut him?

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
