Two separate civil lawsuits have already been filed against Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson, and Houston lawyer Tony Buzbee says there will be more.
Posting on his Instagram account, Buzbee said there are at least six separate lawsuits set to be filed and made sure to note he's not doing this for the money or the fame. The first two suits filed are similar in nature as they proclaim and allege that there was inappropriate behavior and conduct by Watson during massages.
Watson has denied any wrongdoing, going to Twitter initially earlier this week to voice his side:

Deshaun Watson's attorney, Rusty Hardin, told ESPN that Watson “has a great reputation here in the Houston area, and the allegations are really inconsistent with the kind of person he is.”
In the second suit that was filed, Watson reportedly flew a masseuse from Atlanta to a Houston hotel for a massage. Upon arriving, the masseuse reportedly walked in to see Watson nude on a massage table. The masseuse alleges it was requested numerous times that Watson cover himself with a towel, to which the suit says, he would not. It goes on to say and claim that he also touched the woman inappropriately.
Whether or not more lawsuits are filed and brought to light is yet to be seen. Watson has continued to deny any wrongdoing. Watson believes it's a baseless money grab and that he will clear his name when it's all said and done.
We'll just have to wait and see how the facts play out.
