Deshaun Watson Back In Court: Another Lawsuit Rocks Cleveland Browns Quarterback

Deshaun Watson faces yet another lawsuit alleging sexual assault, this time from a Houston woman who claims an incident occurred during a date in 2020. This new case, brought by attorney Tony Buzbee and involving graphic allegations, is expected to go to trial unlike the previous massage therapist lawsuits that were settled. The NFL is also reportedly investigating the matter.

If you are some kind of"sports fan masochist," and care to relive any of the horror of having on the Houston Texans back in the spring of 2021, after he demanded a trade and then proceeded to become the defendant on two dozen lawsuits, making him effectively untradeable, then tune into Cleveland sports talk radio these days, because is back to getting sued once again. The expectation is that, over the next couple weeks, Jane Doe will meet with the NFL. Buzbee has stated that he has at least one other compelling witness, as well as video evidence he intends to share.

In other words, this is another Watson land mine set to explode on the city of Cleveland. The Browns are still on the hook for around $80 million in dead money, signing bonus and restructure bonus dollars they paid Watson and crammed into future seasons' salary caps, but $80 million is way easier to swallow in dead money than $172 million.
