HOUSTON General Manager Nick Caserio has done a substantial job guiding the Houston Texans through the premature stages of their rebuild since taking the job in January of 2021.Despite entering the 2021 NFL Draft with the league's worst capital, Caserio came away with five promising young prospects who can lay the foundation to a succe sful Texans rebuild. And there is a slim chance Caserio could have made the most propitious coaching hire of the offseason with Lovie Smith taking the helm in Houston.Despite Clay Johnston Jersey the minor succe s through Caserio's first 13 months on the job, the one objective the second-year general manager has yet to execute is moving on from displeased quarterback Deshaun Watson.

"As you work in-season until whatever the trade deadline is, theres players that may or may not be available, or teams may call and ask about, would you consider moving him."I think well have discu sions with different teams at different points about a lot of different things especially as we get a little closer to the combine.
