Deshaun Watson may be the happiest player in the NFL. He certainly is on track to become one the league’s wealthiest. The Cleveland Browns acquired the star quarterback from the Houston Texans and signed him to a five-year, $230 million deal, the most lucrative guaranteed contract in NFL history.
The Browns’ front office, coach Kevin Stefanski and the city’s “Dawg Pound” fans surely are just as gleeful. Watson may be the missing cog that puts the Browns on a Super Bowl-bound trajectory. “Cleveland, LETSSSS GOOO!!” Watson said on Instagram after he signed.
There’s a group, however, that isn’t as ecstatic as Watson and the Browns’ fan base — the 22 female massage therapists who have pending lawsuits against Watson alleging sexual misconduct. Several of the women went on to file criminal complaints against Watson, accusing him of a range of lewd actions that included exposing himself and sexual assault.
