Report: Deshaun Watson willing to waive no-trade clause to be traded to Miami Dolphins
- Updated: January 10, 2021
Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson reportedly could request a trade and may consider the Miami Dolphins.
Watson, who threw 33 touchdowns and just seven interceptions this season, has a no-trade clause in his contract. However, ESPN’s Chris Mortensen reported that he could consider waiving it to go to Miami.
Sources say Watson could play hardball with Texans about a trade. His new $156 million contract includes a no-trade clause but informed speculation from a source is that he would consider the @MiamiDolphins in which Tua Tagovailoa and additional compensation goes to Houston.

In a deal for Watson, Miami would likely have to trade quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. However, Watson is one of the league’s top players and could maximize Miami’s playoff and championship windows.
Watson reportedly has been frustrated with the Texans’ general manager search that ended in the hiring of Nick Caserio.
Texans paid ‘hundreds of thousands’ to a search firm and then ignored its suggested finalists, Omar Khan and Louis Riddick, to hire Nick Caserio

In addition, he has been unsatisfied with the organization’s insensitivity to social justice.
Reports about Deshaun Watson's unhappiness with @HoustonTexans are accurate and sources close to the QB say he is still angry about team's insensitivity to social justice, including hiring practices, after the franchise failed to interview Chiefs OC Eric Bienemy this past week.

Miami missed the playoffs this season, but it still went 10-6. If the Dolphins view Watson as a better long-term option than Tagovailoa, they could pull the trigger on a trade.
