Texas coach David Culley knows he will be the coach of Deshaun Watson this season. Or else he says.
At his introductory press conference today, Culley expressed confidence that Watson will be his defender.
“Deshaun Watson is a Texan from Houston; he’s the quarterback for the Houston Texans, ”said Culley, through the Houston Chronicle. “That’s all I care about and it’s all I knew and everything that was said about what he wanted or didn’t want to do, all I know is this. . . He’s a Houston Texan and I want him to be a Houston Texan, and the reason I’m in this position today is because I knew he was going to be a Houston Texan. “
But the reality is that Culley doesn’t know that. Watson wants to be traded and has not given Culley or anyone else any guarantee that he is willing to play for the Texans. So while Culley certainly expects to be training Watson, there is no guarantee that he will.
