Another Deshaun Watson Story, this time from The New York Times
Posted on 6/7/22 at 3:03 pm

It is time, Watson and his representatives say, for everyone to move on.
Yet a New York Times examination of records, including depositions and evidence for the civil lawsuits as well as interviews of some of the women, showed that Watson engaged in more questionable behavior than previously known.
The Times’s review also showed that Watson’s conduct was enabled, knowingly or not, by the team he played for at the time, the Houston Texans, which provided the venue Watson used for some of the appointments. A team representative also furnished him with a nondisclosure agreement after a woman who is now suing him threatened online to expose his behavior.
quote:
Watson has said publicly that he hired about 40 different therapists across his five seasons in Houston, but The Times’s reporting found that he booked appointments with at least 66 different women in just the 17 months from fall 2019 through spring 2021. A few of these additional women, speaking publicly for the first time, described experiences that undercut Watson’s insistence that he was only seeking professional massage therapy.
One woman, who did not sue Watson or 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.
“I specifically had to say, ‘No, I can’t do that,’” said the woman, who spoke on condition of anonymity to protect her family’s privacy. “And that’s when I went into asking him, ‘What is it like being famous? Like, what’s going on? You’re about to mess up everything.’”
quote:
The 66 women are:
The 24 who have sued him, including two who filed suits within the last week. In the most recent suit, the woman said Watson masturbated during the massage.
A woman who sued but then withdrew the complaint because of “privacy and security concerns.”
Two women who filed criminal complaints against Watson but did not sue him.
At least 15 therapists who issued statements of support for Watson at the request of his lawyers and gave him massages during that period.
At least four therapists from Genuine Touch, the massage therapy group contracted with the Texans.
Five women identified by the plaintiffs’ lawyers during the investigation for their civil suits.
At least 15 other women whose appointments with Watson were confirmed through interviews and records reviewed by The Times.

66? Bill Cosby only had 60. This man is a true competitor.

How long does he lay off his fetish before he starts up again in Cleveland?

I am a big believer in letting the facts come out.
That said, this is not about to go away, and if it can be proven that this was happening at the Texans' facility this will get ugly and I have a feeling the league will try to bury Watson and pay off the women.

This story will not go away. Goodell is going to have to come down hard and Cleveland will be screwed.
ETA: if the Texans provided him NDA’s, they’re in some hot water too.

Wouldn’t think so. They are there to protect their players. Texans didn’t ask her to sign it in a dark alley Texans will have some plausible deniability. I do wonder how the NYT mysteriously found out that the Texans provided the NDA though. Definitely strange for them to do so.

Not really mysterious, he was questioned about it in the deposition.

So he hired 66 massage therapists and 24 are suing him. According to my calculations, that gives him a 64% pass completion percentage...not bad.

Watson will not play in 2022 and possibly longer. It is why they are not trading Mayfield unless the offer is HUGE.

The woman “said he initiated sexual contact” in all three of their appointments. .... In their first session, she said he got into the happy baby yoga pose — on his back with his feet in his hands — and asked her to massage between his testicles and anus.
NY Post
My initial 3 thoughts on this article:
1. T'aint no thing!
2. If I was the MT and Baby Yoga happened the 1st visit, I wouldn't have made visits #2 & #3.
3. NY Post > NY Times

There's only one foolproof way to make sure the NYT backs off and apologizes. Accuse them of gaslighting him because of institutional racism.

So that’s what it’s called!

Mayfield isn't taking snaps for the Browns ever again. The reason he hasn't been trading is no one wants to take on that salary.

Watson apparently enjoyed having a finger in his bottom

TL:DR Watson is highly unlikely to play a down this season.

Deshaun Watson is the Steph Curry of backdoor tugjobs

Can’t you just pay a hooker to do freaky shite like this?

A hooker knows the deal the whole time and he's into surprising them with it.

The Texans are going to say it was because one of the women leaked Deshaun’s cell phone number so they did that to protect his privacy. Obviously not the happy ending they expected from their franchise QB. I completely agree this has an appearance of complicity.
Full disclosure, I’m sadly a Texans fan and wouldn’t mind if this ends with McNair being forced to sell the team.

What about his salary makes him untradeable?
