On March 16, 2021, the first civil lawsuit against Deshaun Watson was filed. Less than three weeks later, that number would rise to 22—22 different women all alleging the Houston Texans quarterback of sexual assault and misconduct.
That, however, did not deter the Carolina Panthers from embarking on a year-long chase for the embattled star.
Now, just two days after the anniversary of that first filing, the pursuit is over. Watson, who has since been cleared of any criminal charges, was traded to the Cleveland Browns on Friday in a deal of massive proportions.
