However, Rapoport doesn’t get the sense a deal is close given that Houston appears to be asking for a second-round pick in exchange for Fuller. 

According to ESPN’s Dianna Russini, there’s a disagreement at the top of the organization about if it would be worth the cost to acquire Fuller given he’s in the final year of his contract.

Green Bay has been interested in Fuller since the summer but it’s unclear if they’ll be able to make anything happen today. 

Houston has fielded a ton of calls ahead of the deadline and the Texans have multiple receivers who could be on the move soon

Fuller, 26, is a former first-round pick of the Texans back in 2016. He was entering the final year of his four-year, $10.164 million contract and stood to make a base salary of $1.83 million for the 2019 season when the Texans exercised his fifth-year option last offseason. 

The option is worth $10.1 million for the 2020 season. Fuller will be an unrestricted free agent in 2021. 

In 2020, Fuller has appeared in six games for the Texans and caught 31 passes for 490 yards and five touchdowns. 

We’ll have more on Fuller and the Texans as the news is available.
