The Buccaneers obviously had to receive some important news today, right? That news being of one Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson no longer facing criminal charges that stemmed from 20-plus allegations of misconduct with massage therapists.
The reports were plenty on Friday, with NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport sharing a memo from Watson’s lawyer following the grand jury’s decision.
The interesting importance behind all this is that Watson is essentially ready — to some degree — to get back to football now. The Bucs were tied to Watson throughout many circles this offseason so there had to have been some instant reactions by the Tampa Bay front office to potentially begin formulating packages to lure Watson to the bay area, or at least one would think.
