Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson is NOT happy about being filmed.
Walking off the practice field this morning, Deshaun Watson didn’t want any part of being on film. When he walked off the field, he lashed out at the reporters who were filming him. Watson firing this shot isn’t the biggest thing in the world, but it gives the sports media world everything it wants.
Instead of wondering why he’s being filmed, maybe he should ask himself how he got to be in this spot in the first place. Usually, people awaiting trial are told to stay quiet and lay low, but Watson must have had enough and the outburst is a part of history already.

Deshaun Watson didn’t do himself any favors with the outburst
Honestly, if this is the only outburst since having his star WR traded away, as well as the team being dead wrong to hire Nick Caserio on top of having to navigate the legal cases he’s up against, then it’s not so bad.
It’s frustrating right now to be a Texans fan and player. There is that cloud of off-the-field distractions that just follows the team around until a decision is made in Watson’s crazy number of alleged sexual assaults.
This now opens another can of worms that his teammates will be asked about. “Does Watson’s outburst mean anything”? I can see it already happening, and the same question can get old fast. There shouldn’t be any repercussions for this, but we’ve seen weirder things from Houston Texans head coaches.
Watson’s best way to avoid this is to not travel to Green Bay. He clearly needs some space to calm down. Training camp is monotonous as they come, and after a trade request by Watson, it can only be so much fun.
