The decision to trade Russell Wilson might not have been a sign that the Seattle Seahawks are about to start over.

According to the Pro Football Network, the Seahawks are interested in Deshaun Watson and are expected to explore trade scenarios for him.

There is no trade for the three-time Pro Bowler, who is facing 22 civil lawsuits after being accused of sexual assault and sexual misconduct.

According to Ian Rapoport, the Broncos will get Drew Lock, Noah Fant, two first-round draft picks, and a fourth-round pick from the Seahawks.

If his legal situation is resolved, there will be competition. Wilson said the Carolina and Washington Commanders are interested in acquiring the player.

Jonathan Jones noted that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are also keeping an eye on him.

In addition to the civil lawsuits, the attorney for the man told John Barr that 10 women had filed criminal complaints against him.

Eight of the women, according to Hardin, are among the 22 women who have alleged in lawsuits that Watson sexually assaults them or engages in sexually inappropriate behavior during massage sessions.

Jenny Vrentas and Juliet Macur of the New York Times reported that Tony Buzbee, the attorney representing many women in the civil lawsuits, told them that many of his clients have been subpoenaed to testify.

The personal conduct policy of the National Football League could result in potential discipline for him.

The previous era was closed by the Seahawks Tuesday. After the team agreed to trade Wilson, Seattle informed Bobby Wagner he was being released.

A complete rebuild doesn't make sense for Seattle Pete Carroll is the oldest head coach in the league. Tyler Lockett is eligible for an extension of his contract with the Seahawks, who have dynamic talent on the offense.

The Houston Texans didn't sign him in 2021. He was on the 53-man roster but was inactive for 17 games.
