According to Fox 26's Mark Berman, the Texans are working on a trade with the Dolphins that would send QB Deshaun Watson to Miami. Details of what the Texans would receive in return are still unknown, but the Texans reportedly have not shown interest in conditional draft picks, and that has been a key obstacle holding up any potential trades. You have to wonder if the Dolphins are now willing to meet the Texans price, or if GM Nick Caserio has backed off his draft pick stance. Either way, fans will be expecting multiple first round picks for Watson, since Adam Schefter has reported the Texans are looking to receive a combination of 6 players or draft picks.
#Texans are working toward a potential deal that would send Deshaun Watson to the Miami Dolphins that could get done this week. If not this week they still hope they can get it done before the Nov 2 trade deadline.

The latest update from Astros GM Dana Brown on the club's flagship station did not ease anyone's concerns this week. Brown said he was optimistic that Kyle Tucker would be back before September. September?
Which made us wonder what type of injury Tucker is really dealing with? A bone bruise doesn't typically take this long to heal.
Be sure to watch the video above as ESPN Houston's Joel Blank and Barry Laminack share their thoughts on Tucker's health, the Astros' secrecy when it comes to injuries, and much more!
