A report surfaced Tuesday that the 49ers were going to meet with Deshaun Watson. San Francisco wasted no time refuting that report.
NBC Sports Bay Area’s Matt Maiocco, the San Francisco Chronicle’s Eric Branch, NFL Media’s Peter Schrager and others within minutes of the Watson report all said the 49ers are not meeting with the Texans’ QB.
The 49ers were interested in Watson prior to the more than 20 allegations of sexual assault and sexual misconduct against him. His trade market has been rekindled now that he’s been cleared of nine criminal charges related to those accusations. There are still 22 civil suits pending.
