According to the New York Times, Deshaun Watson booked massage appointments with at least 66 different women over a 17 month period.
There are 24 women who have filed lawsuits against him, including two in the last week, a woman who sued but withdrew the complaint, and two women who filed criminal complaints against him, but did not file a lawsuit.
For the first time, a few of these women spoke publicly. One woman, who did not complain to the police, told The Times that he was persistent in his requests for sexual acts during their massage, including "begging" her to put her mouth on his penis.
According to the New York Times, the non-disclosure agreement that some of the women were given came from the Texans' director of security. According to the Times, the NDA was in the locker of the quarterback days after a woman posted his phone number on social media.
The Texans said in a statement that they were made aware of the allegations against him in March 2021.
According to the latest lawsuit, the man rubbed the man twice. The lawsuit says that the first session was cut short because ofWatson. The woman in the lawsuit says that the man exposed himself and masturbated, and that he didn't apologize or explain what he had done. The lawsuit says the person stopped working with massage therapists.
"We are unable to respond to the new lawsuit at this time," the statement said. Her name was not heard by our legal team until today. Deshaun denies that he did anything inappropriate with any of the people.
As the 24th lawsuit was being announced, he participated in a charity golf outing. The media didn't hear anything from him.
The NFL is looking into whether the quarterback violated its code of conduct after he was interviewed in person last month by the league. At the league's spring meeting, Roger Goodell said he thought the league was nearing the end of its investigation but couldn't give a timetable for when a ruling would be made.
All wrongdoing has been denied by the man.
He spoke to the media for the first time since he joined the Cleveland Browns. I have never mistreated any woman in my life.
