In what seems like it will be a never-ending story, the Cleveland Browns acquisition of QB Deshaun Watson continues to be front-page news for all the wrong reasons.
After two more cases were filed, the first since the team acquired him, recently and the New York Times investigation was published, the Browns and Watson have gone about business as usual. That is expected to continue with the mandatory minicamp opening today but business as usual, right now, also means more cases against Watson.
According to a Houston area report, attorney Tony Buzbee will be filing two new civil cases on Tuesday against Watson bringing the total to 26 in all. KPRC2 was the first to report the newest charges.
While there was hope that the NFL would complete its investigation soon with a ruling sometime in July, four new cases and the possibility for more could delay the matter even further. Buzbee and Watson’s lawyer, Rusty Hardin, have agreed to hold the process during the upcoming NFL season if not resolved before the start of training camp.
For the football team and its fans, uncertainty continues to reign with, seemingly, no end in sight.
