Deshaun Watson Rumors: Trade Market to 'Ramp Up Quickly' After Grand Jury Decision

A Harris County, Texas grand jury decided Friday not to indict Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson on charges stemming from criminal complaints by 10 women alleging sexual assault and misconduct during massage sessions.

Now ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the trade market "is expected to ramp up, quickly" for Watson, who still faces 22 civil lawsuits alleging sexual assault and misconduct.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Network expressed similar sentiments on Watson's trade market:
