On Thursday night, the Carolina Panthers found themselves out of the running in a potential trade for Deshaun Watson.
The Panthers have been in the mix for Watson dating back to last year. However, according to a report from NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport, Watson doesn’t want to play in Carolina.
“The Panthers have been informed they are out on a potential trade for Texans QB Deshaun Watson, per me and Tom Pelissero,” Rapoport said on Thursday night. “That leaves the Falcons and Saints.”
Fans are starting to equate Watson’s decision-making process to the Bachelor.
“This year’s Bachelor is really slow moving,” one person said.

At least one fan thinks he’ll be playing for the Falcons next season.
“Falcons make sense. ‘Hometown hero’ and he grew up and Falcons fan which means he should hate the Saints… one team in desperate need of a QB the other potentially moving on from a Franchise legend…” the fan said.
