Browns coach Kevin Stefanski faced a slew of questions concerning Deshaun Watson and the ongoing legal troubles in the wake of a second civil lawsuit in a week being filed against their quarterback. 

This marks 24 active lawsuits filed against Watson, each detailing graphic accounts of sexual harassment and sexual assault that occurred during massage therapy sessions. The accounts range from Watson allegedly refusing to cover his genitals to the quarterback “touching [a plaintiff] with his penis and trying to force her to perform oral sex on him.” The latest detailed that Watson masturbated and ejaculated on the plaintiff without her consent.
