DeShaun Watson Would Waive No Trade Clause To Play In Philly

I've learned from a source close to DeShaun Watson that he would be willing to waive his no trade clause to play in Philadelphia.   The fact that Jeffrey Lurie and Howie Roseman have never seen a franchise quarterback that they didn't like, makes me believe that there's a legitimate chance that Watson could wind up here in Philly.

I also think the acquisition of veteran quarterback Gardner Minshew might be a preparation by the Eagles to have two experienced quarterbacks to play if, Jalen Hurts is shipped off to Houston in the trade for Watson.  Minshew and Joe Flacco would be available to quarterback the team for half a season or a full season as Watson serves a suspension by the NFL.
