Ashley Solis, the first plaintiff who filed a civil lawsuit against Deshaun Watson, was not one of the 20 plaintiffs who settled their lawsuits against the quarterback Tuesday, attorney Tony Buzbee said in a statement. 

Solis filed her lawsuit against Watson in March 2021 and was the first of 25 women who would eventually file suits against the Browns signal-caller. Before Tuesday, there were 24 active lawsuits against Watson, with one plaintiff dropping her suit against him in April 2021 in light of privacy concerns.
