On Tuesday, Jenny Vrentas of The New York Times published new reporting regarding Deshaun Watson.
That reporting has now altered the course of the lawsuits against the quarterback currently pending.
Tony Buzbee, the attorney for the 24 women who have filed civil lawsuits against the quarterback alleging sexual assault, announced in a statement Wednesday that he would be adding the Houston Texans as a defendant in the cases. In the piece published by Vrentas, it was reported that the Texans at times provided the venue used by Watson for his massage appointments, and that a team representative provided the quarterback with a nondisclosure agreement after a woman threatened to expose his behavior.
