Hopefully that remains an option for him...

[AceBoogie]

That’s exactly what they want him to do

[Tbe]

Like he has a choice now.

Several of his accusers are submitting evidence and signed affidavits to the Houston district attorney on Monday.

Buzzbee is requesting a criminal grand jury as well.

This trade stuff is over.

[tukafan21]

yea, i wouldn't give up our first round pick this year by itself for him right now.

If he's cleared and this is all bunk in the end, then go all out, but right now, you can't touch him with a 10 foot pole

Who the fug cares what the Boston Globe says? Worthless paper.

[TheSpecialJuan]

Well it’s all over then, he’s definitely stayin’

For the people who still think Watson is coming to us

[mav1234]

Given what is happening, there's no guarantee Watson plays for anyone next season.

Man what a roller coaster ride this offseason has been so far.

[DaveThePanther2008]

You can bet your ass had Watson never demanded a trade that this crap would have never come out until well after his career was over.  

This is Houston's way of saying, If he doesn't play for us, he'll play for no one.   I have no doubt this was started by the Texan organization, none whatsoever. 

If the women produce evidence, Watson will be destroyed.   I'm glad we didn't trade for him and then Houston put this out.

there can be two wrong parties in a single event. it's too early to call what exactly deshaun's issue is/was, but it's not with the lawyer representing these women on a case he would have NEVER pursued if not for trying to gain favor from the McNair family and further cement his alleged friendship. he's the same idiot that posted all those billboards about drafting johnny manziel around houston. someone that invested and with that many conflicting interests should recuse themselves instead of collecting allegations via instagram. he's a hack. if there's any heat to this at all he needs to be excused from the case by the judges. the timing is entirely slanderous and the way it was timed almost seems like it was done in concert with the Texans who probably whistled for him before these dogs got released and he didn't change his position. if all this amounts to is a bunch of women being solicited for sex and showing up voluntarily and having consensual sex they later decided was coerced, it's going to be a damn shame. but if you lay with dogs, you tend to get fleas. if you go digging around instagram for broke but beautiful women as someone worth $100 million in this day and time, your judgment needs to be brought into question. if that was how he wanted to get down he should have been smart enough to print out a stack of non-disclosure agreements and sex contracts to protect him against this exact thing. if the stories are authentic as told then he obviously needs to be punished to the extent of the crime, but what a grimy ass way to play it,.

I'm no fan of the Texans' ownership and I get why they're hated, but the OP's article lays out a pretty clear case that the team holds all the cards in this standoff.  Watson will be forced to play this season if he hopes to avoid taking an extremely significant financial hit.

So why would the Texans ruin Deshaun's reputation/future to play in the NFL, when all they have to do is wait for him to cave due to financial pressure or trade him for a boatload of picks/players?

Attacking Deshaun's reputation while he's under contract would likely destroy both of those options.  It would be like killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.

OP has an unhealthy obsession with deshaun
