Since the Texans traded Deshaun Watson to the Browns in March, the quarterback’s legal woes have continued to worsen.
More civil lawsuits have been filed since that day, totaling 24 active cases 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. And it’s expected that more could be on the horizon.
