Stop me if you heard this before: The Philadelphia Eagles are interested in Deshaun Watson...still.
While the New Orleans Saints appear to be the favorites to land the 26-year-old three-time Pro Bowl QB, the Eagles are among the teams "actively monitoring the situation," according to Aaron Wilson of the Pro Football Network.
Wilson reports that the Houston Texans want three first-round picks, other draft capital, and players for Watson.

The Eagles are the only NFL team with three first-round picks in 2022 and Howie Roseman is always willing to make an aggressive move, especially at the quarterback position. Combine that with current Philadelphia starting QB Jalen Hurts, who has had an up and down start to his career, and the Watson-Eagles rumors have maintained pace for months.
There have been mixed reports about Watson's desire to go to Philadelphia, however, as he has a no-trade clause that complicates the situation.

Just a few days ago, a grand jury in Harris County, Texas decided that Watson would not face any criminal charges in response to sexual abuse allegations that have been made against him. Still looming over Watson, though, are 22 civil lawsuits from women who say that Watson engaged in sexual misconduct during massage therapy sessions.
