Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson is in a lot of hot water. Seemingly every few days, his situation appears to get worse and worse. According to NBC Sports‘ Mike Florio, the NFL Player's Union is planning a very aggressive defense. A large part of that defense involves calling out three particular NFL owners, namely Jerry Jones, Daniel Snyder and Robert Kraft.

The reported plan to defend Deshaun Watson is to illustrate the lack of consequences to those owners for their own off-the-field indiscretions. Much of that impinges on a part of the Personal Conduct Policy that reads:

“Ownership and club or league management have traditionally been held to a higher standard and will be subject to more significant discipline when violations of the Personal Conduct Policy occur.”

Snyder recently refused to appear in court to testify in front of Congress. Jones is dealing with a paternity case and potential extortion attempts against him. Kraft had charges dropped against him relating to a ‘happy ending' type situation. The Snyder situation arguably is the only one on par with what Watson is being accused of though.

The Browns have come under fire for making the blockbuster trade to acquire Deshaun Watson from the Houston Texans. When that happened, there were 22 civil suits filed against Watson. The Browns claimed to have done their due diligence. Since that time, two more women have filed lawsuits against the embattled quarterback. The New York Times then posted a report detailing 66 women who Watson had received massages from over a 17-month span.

The new revelations have called into question whether or not he was forthcoming with that information. It's been reported that the Browns built language into Watson's contract that if new information comes to light, they might have flexibility to avoid the guaranteed $230 million.
