Activate him now so that he's ready to go next year when we trade him or he resolves everything or both.
Is there anything wrong with that? Asking from an ignorant, but serious perspective. Seems like this happens all the time. Hell, I know a former president that's entire reputation (or what exists of it) depends on it...
https://www.nfl.com/news/multiple-t...und-picks-for-deshaun-wa?campaign=Twitter_atn Multiple NFL teams offered packages including three first-round draft picks and two third-round picks for Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson in talks with the Texans before last week's trade deadline, sources say. The lack of resolution to Watson's legal situation scuttled the chances of finalizing a deal. The Carolina Panthers and Miami Dolphins both engaged with the Texans in the week leading up to the deadline. But Panthers owner David Tepper decided not to move forward before the deadline, and Dolphins owner Stephen Ross followed suit hours before Tuesday's deadline in part because Watson hadn't settled the civil cases. The Philadelphia Eagles and Denver Broncos also did due diligence on Watson and could re-engage in the offseason. Watson has a no-trade clause and to this point has only waived it to the Dolphins. Sources say the Texans have continued to seek five or six assets, including at least three unconditional first-round picks, plus additional high picks and/or premium players. And multiple teams were willing to meet that price, provided that certain aspects of Watson's legal situation were resolved. But there was no settlement in his civil cases and the police investigation remained open when Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET deadline passed.
Tua trying to seduce Texans brass. Not one, but two full crosses on his face. And it's not even close to Ash Wednesday.
Texans want Watson to expand his team list. By waiting, they forced Watson to work with them before the draft. I think the Texans want the Eagles to be involved. Absolutely no benefit to trading now.
