Watson, never criminally charged, eventually reached an agreement with the NFL to pay a $5M fine and sit out 11 games.
Come Sunday, he’ll be back in H-Town, taking snaps in an NFL game for the first time in nearly two years. The former Texans QB is also expected to have some unexpected guests: his accusers.
While it may seem triggering for Watson's accusers to attend the game, Buzbee also noted how those wanting to face him are demonstrating admirable strength. Sunday will be the first time Watson has played a regular-season game since the 2020 season finale on Jan. 3, 2021, when he threw for 365 yards and three touchdowns for the Texans in a 41-38 loss to Tennessee to cap a disappointing 4-12 season.SUGGESTED:In the months after his request, more than 20 women filed civil lawsuits alleging that he sexually harassed or assaulted them during massages, sparking a police investigation.
Despite Houston’s struggles in 2020, the Texans were confident that Watson would be their long-term solution at quarterback after being plagued by woes at the position for most of their relatively short history.Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson gets emotional during a news conference after a grand jury decides to not indict him on criminal charges after being accused of sexual assault.
