Texas quarterback Deshaun Watson wants to be traded. The Texans don’t want to trade it. Or even hear which teams would be willing to give up for him.

That’s the word of Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, who reports that the Texans were unwilling to discuss Watson with any of the teams who called to make trade offers.

According to Pelissero, some teams have left their trade offers by voicemail, presumably on the line of Texans general manager Nick Caserio. The Broncos, Panthers and Dolphins are among the teams that would be interested in negotiating for Watson.

It’s unclear if it’s even up to Caserio to decide whether the Texans will trade Watson, however. Texas owner Cal McNair has indicated he will not trade Watson.

Watson reiterated his desire to be traded in a conversation with new Texans head coach David Culley.
