Mike Florio Predicts Deshaun Watson’s Trials Will Bleed Into 2024 As New Lawsuits Are Filed

There is a level of difficulty in the avoidance of discussing such a topic as a franchise quarterback within the division who has a growing number of civil lawsuits filed against him charging varying levels of sexual misconduct that essentially rise to the level of rape in the worst of accusations (in non-legal terms, anyway).
