Analyzing how the Browns QB's contract changes based on possible punishments
A crucial step in resolving Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson's playing status for the 2022 season is taking place. A disciplinary hearing to determine whether Watson violated the NFL's Personal Conduct Policy conduct started on Tuesday.
Watson had been facing 24 civil lawsuits alleging inappropriate sexual conduct by him during massage sessions that took place while he was with the Houston Texans. Twenty of the 24 cases were settled last week. Two grand juries in Texas declined to pursue criminal charges against Watson, who has denied any wrongdoing, earlier this year.
Retired U.S. District Court judge Sue L. Robinson, who was jointly appointed by the NFL and NFLPA, is conducting the hearing. The proceeding is expected to last several days.
