Deshaun Watson Fantasy

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson is unlikely to suit up for the organization again, according to general manager Nick Caserio. Watson sat out the entire 2021 season due to the fact he faces more than 20 lawsuits alleging sexual misconduct. That being said, the price for Watson is uncertain due to this ongoing legal situation. The Miami Dolphins were reportedly interested in Watson, but have dropped out of the sweepstakes after firing head coach Brian Flores. At this point, there doesn't seem to be any other organizations seeking Watson. The Texans seem set with giving Davis Mills another shot under center. He showed flashes of potential during his rookie campaign in 2021. The Watson trade rumors are likely going to heat up this offseason, but it appears Houston is officially done with Watson.

With head coach Brian Flores now out, the chances of the Miami Dolphins pursuing or acquiring Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson are greatly diminished, if not gone, according to sources. Flores had an interest in exploring a Watson deal, but others in the organization, including owner Stephen Ross, did not. Even though Miami missed the playoffs in 2021, the organization believes in first-round quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, and he will be the starter in 2022, barring unforeseen circumstances. Watson requested a trade out of Houston in the offseason and is facing over 20 allegations of sexual misconduct or assault from women hired to perform massages. As a result, Watson didn't play at all in 2021. If/when Watson is back on the field in 2022, the three-time Pro Bowler will be highly coveted in fantasy football.

Although the Miami Dolphins did their due diligence on Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson and had conversations with the Texans, the Dolphins will not trade for him before Tuesday's deadline, according to a source. Dolphins owner Stephen Ross wanted more clarification on Watson's pending legal matters and made the final decision not to move forward. Head coach Brian Flores continued to reiterate that Tua Tagovailoa would be the team's starter for the rest of the 2021 season as well. It's possible that the Dolphins could revisit trading for Watson in the offseason, but for now, Tagovailoa remains Miami's starter under center for the rest of this year, barring any further injuries.
