One of the women who filed a lawsuit against Deshaun Watson accusing him of sexual misconduct filed a civil suit against the Texans on Monday, alleging that the organization enabled the quarterback’s behavior during massage therapy sessions.
Jenny Vrentas of The New York Times reported June 7 that Watson booked massage therapy sessions with at least 66 women over the span of 17 months dating back to the fall of 2019. The Times also reported that the franchise provided facilities and nondisclosure agreements for his sessions.
