Falcons meet quarterback Deshaun Watson It’s over, and the team is said to have made a commercial offer to Texas, according to reports Aaron Wilson from ProFootballNetwork.com.
While Watson’s previous meetings with the Browns, Saints and Panthers were all held in Houston, QB’s meeting with the Falcons was in Atlanta. As Wilson notes, the Falcons were a late addition to the Watson sweepstakes, but there are reasons to be optimistic about their pursuit. Watson grew up in Georgia, has a relationship with the assistant coach TJ Yateswho played and coached for the Texas team.
While Meeting Hawks may have featured in a different location, the staff were generally the same. All four teams had owners, general managers and coaches present at their meetings, according to Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio (at Twitter).
While Watson finishes talking with potential suitors, he’s still deciding on his preferred path. Per Florio (on Twitter), the midfielder is “incredibly torn” about his decision and has been impressed by all four presentations. This has made it very difficult to choose a destination, and there is no set timetable for its decision.
