Deshaun Watson, a player for the NFL's Houston Texans, faces 16 sexual assault lawsuits.
Two new lawsuits were filed against Watson on Tuesday in Harris County, Texas, alleging that the quarterback assaulted women while receiving a massage in May and October 2020. Watson's attorney, Rusty Hardin, said Tuesday that he and the NFL star acknowledge that sexual assault and stalking are illegal and morally wrong, but they believe the allegations are false.
