On Monday, Cleveland officially added Deshaun to its 53-man roster, clearing the way for him to play against his former team on Sunday.
The quarterback was shorn of his job by the Cleveland Browns.
The league's personal conduct policy states that sexual assault on a massage therapist is considered a violation of the policy. He was fined and had to go through a treatment program.
It will be 700 days since he last played in a regular-season game when he comes back on Sunday.
More than two dozen women have accused him of inappropriate sexual conduct during massage sessions. He settled 23 of the 24 lawsuits against him. The 25th lawsuit was dropped when the judge ruled that she had to change her name. Two other women didn't file lawsuits against him. The woman who filed the lawsuit said that she was pressured into having sex with him during a massage in 2020.
There were two grand juries in Texas that didn't indict him. People haven't been interested in hearing his side of the story because he's denied any wrongdoing.
He hasn't spoken in public since his suspension was announced.
The Texans received three first-round draft picks as part of the trade. The richest contract in the history of the league was signed by the Cleveland Indians.
Since October, he has been working out at the team's training facility and sitting in on team meetings.
The team is excited to see him in action, according to the coach.
He has done a nice job with his time away. He will be ready to roll.
The Cleveland Indians are 4-7 after Sunday's overtime victory.
