A second grand jury in Texas is considering evidence related to another accusation of sexual misconduct against Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson, ESPN confirmed with Tony Buzbee, the lawyer for the complainant.
The New York Times first reported that Brazoria County, south of Houston, has a criminal case pending against Watson.
The Browns declined comment, but a team spokesman told ESPN that the team was aware of the potential of a second grand jury and made aware it was hearing evidence.
The Browns acquired Watson from the Houston Texans last week for three first-round picks and three other draft picks.
