The longer this issue goes on the deeper it gets. After a 24th woman filed a civil suit against Deshaun Watson, it was later found that the star quarterback had been in contact with 66 women in a 17-month time span asking each of them for a “massage.” In those findings, it was reported that the Houston Texans provided hotel rooms and potentially enabled this horrific behavior. Tony Buzbee, the lawyer representing all of the women filing a lawsuit against Watson comments on the situation.

According to Sarah Barshop, Buzbee has now included the “Texans organization and others as defendants in the ongoing lawsuits against Deshaun Watson.” This is a big move, as Houston is now being included in the lawsuits, and there is a real chance the franchise knew of Watson's serial sexual harassment.

Buzbee explains his process with a much longer statement, per Sarah Barshop. Of course, everyone is innocent until proven guilty, but it's hard to believe there was no wrong-doing. With 24 women sharing a similar story, along with 66 more potentially experiencing the same thing, Deshaun Watson and the Houston Texans could be in big trouble.

These are serious allegations and Rodger Goodell and the NFL have yet to finalize a punishment for the, now, Cleveland Browns quarterback. We'll see how it plays out, but the more information being released, both Cleveland and the Texans are looking like true villains in the public eye. This is an ongoing issue with no end in sight, especially considering Tony Buzbee claims “this is just the tip of the iceberg.”
