Fact: Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson has not rescinded his trade request.
Fact: the players don’t want to talk about the Watson situation either — at least, not with the media.
However, there is more than what is being said going on between Watson and the Texans players, who are still technically teammates.
In a photo tweeted by Aaron Wilson of Sports Talk 790, Watson and receiver Brandin Cooks were seen sharing smiles as they walked over to the practice fields at Houston Methodist Training Center for day three of training camp. Thus far, Cooks has been a full go while Watson has been curtailed to scout team safety.

Cooks wouldn’t talk about Watson after the first day of training camp.
“I’m not answering those questions,” said Cooks. “I’m not. I know he wouldn’t want me to comment on that so I’m going to leave that alone. I’m going to leave that alone.”
