During a kick return back in 2007, former Houston Texans defensive tackle Cedric Killings fractured his vertebra after he collided head-on with former NFL wide receiver Roy Hall. That was Week 3 against the Indianapolis Colts in the second quarter, as it ended his pro career for good. Coming off the stretcher, Killings reportedly had numbness in his lower extremities and couldn’t move them, as we have seen something similar being handled on the field this past season with Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) and Damar Hamlin (cardiac arrest) as more recent examples but different circumstances for both....

J.J. Watt is apparently in a defiant mood after the NFL requested that he take a drug test during the offseason. Watt announced his retirement in December and humorously dismissed the NFL’s request. “I don’t know what happens when you click ‘Report Junk’ but I think I’m about to find out,” Watt joked on Twitter. NFL’s random drug test policy has been the subject of humorous criticism for years, as the league has often been accused of targeting the best players after impressive performances. This is certainly not the first time that Watt, a three-time Defensive Player of the Year award winner, ...

In a surprising statement, the Houston Texans announced that rookie wide receiver John Metchie III was diagnosed with leukemia and is not expected to play this season. The 44th overall pick expressed his desire to get back on the field in a statement saying, “Recently I was diagnosed with APL (Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia), the most curable form of Leukemia, I am currently receiving great medical care, am in good spirits and I expect to make a recovery at a later point in time. As a result of this diagnosis, I will likely not be playing football this season. My main focus will be on my health ...

There are a number of new allegations are swirling around Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson. Along with the new allegations and lawsuits filed against Watson, an investigation conducted by The New York Times, found that there are new details regarding Watson’s massage sessions and the previous lawsuits that contradicts the evidence that Watson and his legal team have provided. The investigation found that Watson had been seeing a number as many as 66 massage therapists in a 17-month span between 2019 and 2021. This contradicts Watson’s claim of only about 40 therapists. New details a...

A Houston judge has ruled that Deshaun Watson can face questions under oath in at least some of the 22 civil cases filed against him by women who have accused the (perhaps soon-to-be-former) Houston Texans quarterback of everything from sexual harassment to sexual assault during massage sessions. Watson’s attorney, Rusty Hardin, filed a motion last week to delay Watson’s deposition until after April 1—it was originally scheduled to begin as early as this week. He argued that such a delay would enable Watson’s legal team to secure depositions with all 22 of the plaintiffs and also allow Watson ...

The Houston Texans have hired Lovie Smith as their new head coach. Smith, who is African American, is the second minority candidate to be hired this offseason after the Miami Dolphins brought on San Francisco 49ers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, who is biracial, on Sunday. Smith, 63, spent last season as Houston’s associate head coach and defensive coordinator, and he’ll take over for David Culley, who also is African American and was fired after just one season, under dubious circumstances. Prior to the Texans, Smith spent 2016-2020 as the head coach at Illinois. “[Smith] is one of the ...

Former running back Dion Lewis has announced his retirement from the NFL. The dual-threat spent 10 seasons in the league playing for various teams and still received interest from teams in the offseason before deciding to call it quits. Lewis had a stellar career at the University of Pittsburgh, winning the Big East Rookie of The Year and Offensive Player of The Year during his college playing years. He was selected by the Philadelphia Eagles in the 2011 Draft but saw little playing time during his first two seasons in Philadelphia. After suffering a fractured fibula, he was then traded to the...

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson has returned to practice with the team for the first time in a week. Watson requested a trade earlier in the offseason and then reported to Texans camp on July 25. He participated in the first five days and then proceeded to miss the next five days. Less than two months after his trade request, the first of 23 lawsuits were filed against him. Currently, he is facing 22 active lawsuits of allegations of sexual assault and inappropriate behavior. If Watson had decided not to show up for training camp he would have been fined $50,000 for each day of tr...

The Texans are reportedly willing to ship their quarterback Deshaun Watson to another team should the right offer come along. That offer would have to be quite substantial, but nonetheless, Houston is willing to part ways with their franchise quarterback. Watson has continually shown he no longer wants to be in Houston. Watson would have to waive his no-trade clause, although if the right team made an offer it would be rational to assume he would do so. Watson does have controversy surrounding him, though. The young quarterback has been accused in 22 separate lawsuits of sexual assault. If tea...

It has recently been revealed that the case against Deshaun Watson could remain ongoing until the early portion of next year. This comes according to the docket of Watson’s case, which states that he cannot be deposed until February of 2022. This means he will not be able to respond to questioning under oath until this time. Watson is currently being sued for sexual misconduct and assault by 22 women. The avalanche of cases began in March, as the first three women brought their cases against Watson. The case has just entered the pre-trial discovery phase. In this stage, both parties will accum...
