The Deshaun Watson trade rumors certainly will gain steam this week after the disgruntled Houston Texans quarterback spent a few days in South Florida.
Watson was photographed on Thursday night in Miami with Dolphins players Raekwon Davis and Christian Wilkins, whom he played with for two seasons at Clemson.

The three-time Pro Bowler has requested a trade from Houston and one of his top destinations is reportedly Miami. However, Texans owner Cal McNair and general manager Nick Caserio have reiterated that they have no plans to trade Watson this offseason despite his demand.
The Texans appear headed toward a rebuild after releasing All-Pro defensive end J.J. Watt last week. Many assume Watson will be on his way out next, but it's unclear right now.
The 25-year-old is said to be "furious" at the direction the Texans are headed and is also mad that he wasn't included in the franchise's general manager and head coaching search.
