Fresh off  Trenton Irwin Jersey their fourth straight lo s, a 22-point defeat that saw coach Matt Rhule bench quarterback early in the fourth quarter in an effort to "spark" the offense, the are now expected to pursue ahead of the Nov. 2 trade deadline. That's , who reported Sunday that both league and team sources anticipate the signal-caller being on Carolina's radar.CBS Sports insider Jason La Canfora that the Panthers were mulling a potential trade for Watson amid Darnold's struggles as the starting QB, and earlier on Sunday La Canfora reported that at the trade deadline. Days ago,  Fred Johnson Jersey Carolina had, in fact, engaged in recent talks with the Texans but suggested those talks were not "substantial," at least compared to reported negotiations with the -- another long-speculated Watson destination.And yet Darnold has struggled mightily since the Panthers opened the season 3-0. During Darius Hodge Jersey  the four-game losing streak, the former first-rounder, acquired this offseason in a swap of multiple draft picks, has thrown just four touchdowns and seven interceptions. Rhule told reporters after Sunday's lo s that Darnold will remain the starter in Week 8, but only after pulling the QB for backup trailing 15-3.It's still unclear what the Texans would be willing to accept in a deal for Watson, who has privately maintained trade requests since this offseason.
