All of the alleged victims were masseuses who say Watson crossed lines during their massage therapy sessions, from Watson allegedly rubbing his erect penis against them without their consent to forcing them to perform oral sex. A number of the women say in their suits that they suffered from PTSD following the incidents, including crippling anxiety, depression, and panic attacks. Watson, through his lawyer Rusty Hardin, has denied the women\u2019s allegations, saying that any \u201cactive sexual activity\u201d that happened during the massage sessions was \u2018mutually desired by the other party.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The FBI and the Houston Police Department continue to investigate the allegations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Houston Texans QB Deshaun Watson allegedly offered one of his 22 sexual misconduct\/assault accusers a $100,000 settlement in exchange for her silence, according to a report.
