I’ll be surprised if Watson has anything to say in court. If and when it gets to criminal court he will have no choice! I bet he eventually pay millions to get this over with. Hope he has learned a valuable lesson. With his money he shouldn’t have to look to a massage partner for “relief”!

He put himself in a stupid position and guilty or not he is stained.
He hasn't played a down in over a year. He will be tainted wherever he plays.
And people shouldn't be hypocrites... if had hadn't been a Tiger people would be BLASTING him endlessly for this.

women to do anything against their will, and I'm still convinced that most if not all were all offering and expecting more than a backrub. Still, I get the feeling DW was incredibly naive and immature.

I just don’t see anything coming out of this unless Deshaun decides to settle to get this over with. If they had charges they felt they could prove, he would have already been charged.
Deshaun will be careful and learned a lesson at 23 years old. I don’t believe for a second he forced anything on anyone. A professional masseuse would walk out & not ask for more business if they weren’t treated right. I’m not saying he didn’t have contact with these girls but I don’t believe it wasn’t mutual,
Deshaun is a very respectful young man and has always shown that character to Clemson.
We should stand by and trust him until something different is proven.
Deshaun would have settled out long ago if he was guilty, in my Opinion.

unless I'm mistaken, most of his accusers didn't file criminal charges which is pretty telling IMO.
Taking his deposition until the status of criminal changes is known is totally pointless. He'll simply take the 5th and refuse to answer any questions, so it's a complete waste of everyone's time.

Yea but you and I know we will never get the truth of what happened. There will be a payout of some sorts I would imagine( which I hope he does not pay if he did nothing wrong). Just their word against his and he did admit to some of it being consensual so we are certain that something did happen. Just so dang many of them is what gets me.

While I am no lawyer, the only criminal charge I can think of is rape. Sexual misconduct is not a criminal felony. So like O.J. he has to testify in any, or all of the Civil cases. So you honestly believe that out of 22 possible lawsuits ,he didn't force himself on at least 1.Hope you are right on that because that one would have to be proven in court, and then you really get into his character, even though he would not have to testify. As to standing by him, answer me why? And to your second point, do you really trust him? As to settling out of court, if this were a simple one on one sexual misconduct case, he would have. But multiple accusations are a little more time consuming.

Wasn't it always "Innocent until Proven Guilty"? Shouldn't he have played until he is either charged or arrested? I'm not saying he isn't guilty but for this to last this long with no progress, he is losing his opportunities to earn an income that could be used in a settlement if and when that happens.
Just seems like this has wasted important time in DW4 career. If these girls are looking for monetary gain from his indiscretions, then they should want him to be earning money.
I know many may disagree, but if I were DW4, I would want this to be over sooner than later so he can get his future figured out and moving forward as his opportunities to make money is now and not in 5yrs.

He chose not to play. He chose to sit out until he was traded. Unfortunately, the circumstances he now finds himself in made it impossible to make a trade happen until this mess is cleared up.

Deshaun had told the Texans he was not going to play. We have done been over this before on another thread. Why would the Texans pay him to sit him. If it was up to Houston he would be playing. Going to practice to get paid but says he will not play for the Texans.

Like I said if it was up to Houston he would be playing. Stupid not too. The NFL has not sat him, the cases have not been decided. No reason for Houston to pay him that kind of money to sit out. He demanded a trade and that’s what they are trying to get. Facts are different depending on where you get them. If you an NFL owner you going to pay that kind of money to tell him to sit? This was before the women came out with their accusations. He was pissed about the coaching situation and that they were unloading good players. Houston is in a mess thanks to the previous coach/GM. I believe it will take a lot for them to recover but they are banking on making coin on a Watson trade. The problem being is his future is in question.

Some folks just don't seem to get it. DW has a contract that obligates him to play for the Texans. For PR or whatever reason, they allowed him to sit and get paid (I would have forced him to play if I was footing this enormous bill, but whatever). If DW refused to play and he sits ..... then he does not make a dime until his contract expires and he hooks on with another team. Imagine telling your employer your not working but just keep the checks comimg... sure - happens all the time.

The point is this all started because Watson proclaimed to management that he refused to play. They could have threatened him with breach of contract but it does not appear that would have shaken him from his position so they came to a "mutual agreement" in light of his other troubles and trading him for top value seems near impossible until his legal issues come to a resolution.
"New Houston head coach David Culley got the word directly from the source: Deshaun Watson has no intention of playing for the Texans ever again.
Watson met with Culley on Friday and told him he wants to be traded, Dan Graziano of ESPN reports.
Although Watson hasn’t made that declaration publicly, it’s been clear for weeks that that is Watson’s stance. He does not want to play for the Texans and is angling for a trade.
Texans owner Cal McNair has insisted that Watson will remain a Texan, but at some point someone has to blink. The Texans could get an enormous haul of players and draft picks if they were willing to trade Watson, and with each new report that Watson remains dug in, the chances increase that the team will eventually relent and give Watson the trade he wants."

"Innocent until proven guilty" probably applies to more criminal conduct, not my word versus her word. But multiple cases, as with DeShaun, are going to take a long time to settle. And yes there would be a verdict, and it would only take 1 guilty verdict to bring him down, IMO. As to playing time, I am under the impression is is still getting paid ,but do you honestly think he does the team, or himself any good playing at times like this.

And I'm guessing the lack of criminal charges is because the accusers would implicate themselves for potential prostitution charges.
I don't know the details very well, but IMO the only thing DW is guilty of is having carnal urges, and bad judgement. This would be non-issue if paid sex between consenting adults was legal.

Given his current legal situation, Texas will not get the “haul of 1st round draft picks”. Would you buy a car that wouldn’t start. He’s mired in a legal mess and no team will wage their future ( multiple first round picks) on a player with a future so uncertain.
Sometimes you have to sleep in the bed you made for yourself.

"Last down" seems extreme. DW has destroyed his image and likely crippled his ability to draw big from sponsorships. He's going to wind up settling and live through some terribly embarrassing revelations. I still think he's got a lot of downs left to play in the NFL, though.

We don’t know what happened. Dude came from humble origins, got put on a pedestal and given a lot of money at a really young age, and he messed up. No need to pile on. Bob Kraft still gets to own the patriots right? How bout joe mixon? That dude broke a woman’s face and he’s allowed to play. I’d take deshaun over either of those guys. Hope he’s back playing soon

Deshaun is just a horny little cat and apparently likes variety. Someone like him should never have to pay a woman to do anything. Makes no sense and he was ignorant. As for the women, they are equally ignorant if they thought he brought them in for just a massage!!! There is no way they should be that naive unless they were underage and evidently none were. Anyone who advertises on instagram for massages is aware what may happen.

This whole matter is injudicious. You mean a professional masseuse is bothered by nudity or a request for some form of sex? Give me a break. Did he force himself physically on them? The judge should throw this out of court before it even gets started.

This all about his fight with Houston, always has been. who will blink first? It will all go away once either he agrees to play or they agree to trade. It's accepted by Houston fans that charges were result of Houston management efforts to control DW4. Kobie, Tiger, Clinton all overcame far worse hits to reputations. DW4 will be fine and he will play again soon and it won't be in Houston. I respect him more than ever for his courage in standing up to the Houston management morons. A year not playing behind that line extends his career 5 years.

Why does this take so long? It doesn't take a year to dispose twenty people for criminal or civil cases. Didn't they form a grand jury for this? I mean interview the women. Determine if any allegation raises to the level of criminal. Investigate those allegations. Indict or not. Why so long?
