New head coach Lovie Smith said Wednesday that he has "no idea" if Watson will be on the Texans' roster during the upcoming season, Aaron Reiss of The Athletic reports.

Watson remained on Houston's roster throughout the 2021 campaign while he dealt with investigations related to 22 civil lawsuits alleging sexual assault and misconduct, but he was a healthy inactive for every game. His situation remains murky, and based on Smith's comments, Houston seems content to head into the 2022 NFL Draft operating as though Watson won't be part of its plans. Expect the Texans to continue to engage with teams in trade talks pertaining to Watson throughout the offseason.
