Texans' Deshaun Watson: No eligibility restrictions for now

The NFL released a statement Tuesday saying that its "review of the serious allegations against [Watson] remains ongoing and active" and that "at this time, there are no restrictions on Watson's participation in club activities," Grant Gordon of NFL.com reports.

The NFL has been conducting an investigation into Watson's legal situation since March, but the league has reportedly not yet "been given access to speak to any of the civil plaintiffs or to third parties who might have relevant info." Watson has shown up at training camp, and Tom Pelissero of NFL Network recently reported that the Texans are willing to listen to trade offers. Though it's clear the NFL doesn't have immediate plans to place Watson on the Commissioner's Exempt List, at least until new information is made available to the league, teams may still be hesitant to deal significant draft capital in exchange for the quarterback until such time as his legal situation is resolved.
