The NFL trading window was officially closed this Tuesday, November 2 at 3:00 p.m. Central Mexico, and will not reopen until March 16, 2022, the first day of the new year of league and start of free agency period. However, in this article we will review all the trades made at the last minute, the ones that ultimately did not happen despite the anticipation of the opposite and other extremely interesting roster cuts. These are the NFL trades that were before the limit.
Deshaun Watson stays in the Texans
Throughout the previous offseason and so far this season it was speculated that the QB Deshaun Watson, who no longer wants to play for Texans, would leave the team. As the weeks go by, the Dolphins raised their hands as great candidates To seize his services, however, the NFL’s trade deadline has come to an end, and Watson will remain tied to Houston for at least the rest of the season.
This Tuesday, via Ian Rapoport from NFL Media, it was reported that, as a result of the 22 civil lawsuits for alleged sexual assault that Watson affront have not been clarified, Miami finally chose not to make any trade. The owner of the Dolphins, Stephen Ross, received permission to speak only last night with Watson, but due to the complications that this deal implies, there was not enough time to solve the problems, so Ross decided not to go ahead with a possible negotiation.
Thus, the QB Tua Tagovailoa will have nine more games to show the Miami organization that they can become the franchise quarterback they want, and the same is true in Carolina, another strongly interested team, who decide to go ahead with the QB Sam Darnold at least this year. And for their part, finally, the Texans have postponed the outcome of the Watson story at least until March 2022, when the next trading period begins.
