Report: Deshaun Watson Facing Two Additional Lawsuits

The legal woes continue for Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson as two additional lawsuits are set to be filed against him.

According to KPRC2 in Houston, Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson is facing two additional lawsuits, bringing the current total number to 26.

Many around Cleveland have turned a blind eye as Watson has hit the field for OTAs, however, with lawsuits piling up, the breaking point may be near for the embattled quarterback. Roger Goodell decided against placing Watson on the paid leave list back in March but with almost as many lawsuits as there are NFL teams, the commissioner would be wise to give it a hard look once again.

The Cleveland Browns committed $230 million dollars, fully guaranteed, after acquiring Watson for multiple draft picks earlier in the offseason. Since that acquisition, four additional lawsuits have been filed and there is no telling if this is only the beginning as more and more people come forward.

Earlier today on the Pat MacAfee Show, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport said he expects the league to make a decision in July before training camp on a Watson suspension and he added that it could come in the range of four to 10 games. Whether or not the league or Rapoport was aware of the impending lawsuits is unknown but given the scope of this situation, the 4-to-10 game range seemed rather light even without the two additional lawsuits.
