The Houston Texans and Miami Dolphins were unable to reach a deal that would provide Deshaun Watson to start the next chapter of his NFL career in a new city.

The NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport joined “The Rich Eisen Show” on Wednesday and broke down what happened between the two sides and what the future may look like for the Texans, Dolphins, Watson, and the 2022 quarterback market.
