CorkScrewHill Posted August 11, 2021 Posted August 11, 2021 sadly not Davis Webb Just shocking how far this guy has fallen https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/08/11/deshaun-watson-lands-at-fourth-string-on-texans-quarterback-depth-chart/
Dablitzkrieg Posted August 11, 2021 Posted August 11, 2021 Insane. I thought I read somewhere that the Texans are trying to block media from being there at training camp but the NFL said get lost.
Rocky Landing Posted August 11, 2021 Posted August 11, 2021 It must just be straight-up depressing to be on that team. 1
EmotionallyUnstable Posted August 11, 2021 Posted August 11, 2021 What is the NFL’s end game with this? Goodell suspended Zeke 6 games for his gf filing charges of abuse, to which is he never charged. Yet 22 civil suits against Watson and not even moved to the commissioners exempt list? Is the NFL headed for a stand off with the Texans, waiting to see what the other guy’s move is in order to save face? I think it’s awful. 1
BillsShredder83 Posted August 11, 2021 Posted August 11, 2021 Texans buried the guy on the nfl depth chart so the nfl is staying hands off until they "have" to do something. What I don't understand is at this point why not name him the starter, amd let HIM decide not to play. Then they're not paying him and might even be able to fine him. The whole situation is just bizarre 1
Doc Posted August 12, 2021 Posted August 12, 2021 Burying him says to me that the NFL is going to suspend him sometime during the season.

I was only half listening but I heard something on radio like they tried to end TC early altogether (?) and the nfl said no. Not sure if they were trying to just not have open practice or what. The crazy thing was when they were playing Watson at safety last week. Wouldn’t you want to make sure he doesn’t get injured?

Rc2catch Posted August 12, 2021 Posted August 12, 2021 Poor culley.. Finally get your dream job and then this mess falls in your lap to deal with. 1

If he did get injured, and ended up on season-ending IR, does that help the team's position at all?

GunnerBill Posted August 12, 2021 Posted August 12, 2021 I did half consider for my Bold Predictions saying Watson to start a regular season game for the Texans this year.

Maybe if the league suspended him they could get out of some guarantees? But they'd have to release him, and they likely are trying to trade him. 1

I mean... expectations have to be pretty low right? Team was 4-12 and still probably have the worst D in the league, they didn't have their first and second round picks, and their only star is currently being accused by multiple women of sexual misconduct. They had to burn one of the 5 picks they did have on a QB since the expectation would be that they won't have Watson.
HOUSE Posted August 12, 2021 Posted August 12, 2021 3 first round picks ?? Man, I'm I glad we don't need a QB anymore 1

Calm down. No they did not try to end TC early. And Watson did not "play" safety, they needed an extra body to stand in where the safety was supposed to be, there was zero chance of him getting hurt. One day the media was allowed only for the first hour of practice, then someone complained and the Texans were told by the league they had to allow the press access, that is the entire story. The Texans want to be Patriot South, why they hired Nick Caserio and they envision hiding from the media is one way to achieve it. 14 hours ago, BillsShredder83 said: Texans buried the guy on the nfl depth chart so the nfl is staying hands off until they "have" to do something.

The whole situation is just bizarre You cant force someone to play, then he will suddenly will have a hurt ankle. He wlil never take a snap as a Texan again as long as that doofus Cal McNair owns the team.
