Another woman accused suspended Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson of sexual misconduct in a lawsuit filed Thursday in Texas.
Watson returned Monday to the Browns’ training facility, the first day he was permitted to rejoin the team under the terms of his suspension. He may resume practicing Nov. 14 and is eligible to play in a game Dec. 4 in Houston against the Texans, his former team. The settlement also required Watson to undergo a professional evaluation and treatment plan. The Browns did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The new lawsuit lists its causes of action as civil assault and the intentional infliction of emotional distress, and seeks unspecified damages. It says that the woman is a licensed massage therapist who was working from home during the pandemic and traveling to meet some clients. Watson contacted her via direct message on Instagram, according to the lawsuit, seeking a massage on Dec. 17, 2020.
The woman has “suffered from severe depression and anxiety” due to Watson’s behavior and is seeking counseling, the lawsuit says.
