Six more women on Monday, March, 22, 2021, filed lawsuits accusing Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson of sexual assault and harassment, bringing the total number of such lawsuits against the NFL player to 13.
The women, in lawsuits filed in state court in Houston, accuse Watson of exposing himself, touching them with his penis or kissing them against their will while he got a massage.
All of the women who have sued Watson are either licensed massage therapists or worked in a spa or similar business.
Hardin said the attempt to blackmail Watson ācalls into question the legitimacy of the other cases as well.
