Browns QB Deshaun Watson suspended for 6 games by NFL following accusations of sexual misconduct

Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson was suspended for six games Monday for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy following accusations of sexual misconduct made against him by two dozen women in Texas, CBS Sports NFL Insider Josina Anderson reports.

Former federal judge Sue L. Robinson ruled Monday to suspend Watson for six weeks after hearing testimony regarding the former Pro Bowl player's alleged off-field conduct.

Watson, who played for four seasons with Houston before being traded to Cleveland in March, recently settled 23 of 24 lawsuits filed by massage therapists alleging sexual harassment and assault during appointments in 2020 and 2021.
