The Houston Texans could reportedly lower their massive asking price on quarterback Deshaun Watson, according to Jay Glazer of Fox Sports:
“They weren’t open to trade talks unless somebody was going to give them a ridiculous trade offer, more than six draft picks,” Glazer reported on Fox NFL Sunday. “They’ve already been offered three ones and three threes and wanted more than that. However, I was told in the past week, their stance started to soften a little bit with that.”
Glazer also listed the Miami Dolphins as an “obvious trade partner” with Tua Tagovailoa sidelined with a rib injury.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter previously reported the Texans were “unwilling to budge” on their trade demands.
Watson has been inactive for Houston this season after being accused of sexual assault or sexual misconduct by 22 women who have filed civil lawsuits against him. He would still be eligible to play following a trade considering he is not yet on the Commissioner’s Exempt List.
