It's mind-boggling to me that Houston didn't sign him long-term, especially since Watt is 30. Those pass rushers are rare, and those with Clowney's versatility and athleticism are basically unicorns.

The fear is that Clowney's knees are ticking time bombs. A long term deal comes with a lot of risk, especially if it takes star player money to get it done.
