Deshaun Watson could have given the first indication that he is interested in coming to the Jets.
The official account of the Texan star I liked a picture of the back page of The Post on Monday, it was said that the Jets should do “whatever it takes” to acquire the disgruntled defender. The picture was posted by Wayne Schneider, Yonkers entrepreneur.
Watson, 25, is reportedly unhappy with Houston owner Cal McNair and football vice president Jack Easterby after the organization failed to deliver on its promises to provide information about the CEO and the vacant director of the club. coaching positions after the dismissal of Bill O’Brien. Watson would not have been consulted before the Texans hired GM Nick Caserio this month.
Adam Schefter on ESPN reported since then that there is a “growing feeling on the part of the people in and around the Texan organization that Deshaun Watson has played his last shot for the team.”
Watson wrote on Twitter last week that “I was on a 2, then I took it to 10.” The wording was similar to an ESPN report that says Watson’s anger when the Texans switched receiver DeAndre Hopkins to the Cardinals in the last off-season was a “2” and has now increased. Watson did not officially request a transaction, according to Pro Football Talk.
If Watson wants to come out, the Jets are one of the teams – in terms of assets – that could best be in a position to land him. General manager Joe Douglas has amassed 18 draft picks over the next two years, including four in the first round. The Jets could also place quarterback Sam Darnold in any transaction and have the maximum space to extend Watson’s four-year extension by $ 156 million.
If Watson’s social networks are any indication, he could be open to wearing green.
