Deshaun Watson: 7 NFL Teams the Texans QB Could Play for After Requesting Trade
Deshaun Watson has officially requested a trade from the Houston Texans. It was reported Watson [...]
Miami Dolphins
This might be the best fit for Watson. Despite the Dolphins drafting Tua Tagovailoa last year, they can take a big step forward with the addition of Watson. This season, the Dolphins finished the year with a 10-6 record but missed the playoffs.
prevnextNew York Jets
Watson has reportedly said he would like to play for the Jets if he was traded. With a new head coach in Robert Saleh, adding a quarterback like Watson would help speed up the rebuild in New York. If the Jets make the trade, it would also mean the Sam Darnold era is over.
prevnextDenver Broncos
Drew Lock has shown glimpses of being a top quarterback, but Broncos new general manager George Paton could get the fans fired up with the trade of Watson. If Watson were to come to Denver, he would be working with some strong weapons, including Jerry Jeudy, Courtland Sutton and KL Hamler.
prevnextSan Francisco 49ers
Jimmy Garoppolo got the 49ers to the Super Bowl last year but adding Watson would but the 49ers over the top. Watson's athletic ability fits 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan's scheme, which is something he has been looking for since becoming the head coach.
prevnextWashington Football Team
Washington moved on from Dwayne Haskins and will likely do the same with Alex Smith. Taylor Heinicke played well for Washington in the playoff game, but Watson would get them back to where they were in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
prevnextLas Vegas Raiders
Derek Carr has been solid for the Raiders, but they need something big to get them over the hump. Watson would be working with players like Josh Jacobs, Darren Waller and Henry Ruggs, which is a pretty solid group of skill players.
prevnextNew England Patriots
It's likely the Patriots won't re-sign Cam Newton, and Jarrett Stidham isn't the answer. Bill Belichick should get things back on track in 2021, but he needs a quarterback that is accurate and won't make mistakes. Watson is that and has the ability to make big plays with his arms and legs.
