A reason you might need to be careful with a Deshaun Watson trade, aside from the valuable premium draft picks you would need to give up, and his enormous salary, is the player has two reconstructed knees.
Watson blew out his left knee as a freshman at Clemson, and then blew out his right knee as a rookie with the Houston Texans, so he has two surgical knees.
That is probably something potential suitors must consider, especially with the fact that he likes to run a lot.
But hey, considering how well knee reconstructions are done in the modern age, some teams might not consider this a big deal at all.
But Watson’s knees are certainly something that should come up at the board room table of a team considering a trade for him.
