Deshaun Watson’s disciplinary hearing with Sue L. Robinson, the disciplinary officer appointed by the NFL and players association, is slated to begin Tuesday, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
The former U.S. district judge will hear the different sides as the league will reportedly argue for a “significant” suspension while the NFLPA will defend the Browns quarterback. A source close to Watson’s side told The Washington Post that the NFL will “probably” go with a one-season suspension. However, a different source close to the league’s side said to be “careful” about a specific suspension length, but that the ruling will be “significant.”
