The NFL, who has been investigating the claims of sexual misconduct during massage therapy sessions, is preparing to present its findings to Sue L. Robinson. Robinson, a former U.S. district judge, is the disciplinary officer appointed by the league and NFLPA, per the Post.  <\/p>\n<h5 id=\"h-two-more-lawsuits-to-be-filed-against-deshaun-watson-bringing-count-to-26\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.outkick.com\/two-more-lawsuits-to-be-filed-against-deshaun-watson-bringing-count-to-26\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>TWO MORE LAWSUITS TO BE FILED AGAINST DESHAUN WATSON, BRINGING COUNT TO 26<\/strong><\/a><\/h5>\n<p>Two Texas grand juries declined to charge Watson criminally in March and both he and his attorney, Rusty Hardin, have denied the allegations. The league hopes to have its disciplinary process wrapped up by the time Browns training camp begins on July 27. That includes a resolution to any potential appeals to NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. <\/p>\n<p>The New York Times reported last week that Watson booked massage appointments with at least 66 different women over a 17-month period from fall 2019 to spring 2021. Asked after Tuesday\u2019s minicamp practice if that number was accurate, Watson gave the following response:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Here&#8217;s Deshaun Watson being asked if the NY Times report of at least 66 different massage therapists in a 17-month period is accurate. <\/p>\n<p>His answer:<\/p>\n<p>(via <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Browns?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@Browns<\/a>)<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/cjBkAEsI8E\">pic.twitter.com\/cjBkAEsI8E<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Ari Meirov (@MySportsUpdate) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MySportsUpdate\/status\/1536759344427147266?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 14, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>\u201cUm, I mean I can ask, I don\u2019t think so, from what me and my attorneys went through,\u201d Watson said. \u201cBut that\u2019s more a legal question that I can\u2019t get into details about. You have to ask my attorneys and things like that to confirm.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If Robinson rules that Watson didn\u2019t violate the personal conduct policy, the case would be over and no appeals would be possible. On the flip-side, if she finds that Watson did violate the policy and imposes a punishment, either side can appeal to Goodell. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><figcaption>(Photo by Nick Cammett\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Asked about how he\u2019s handling the disciplinary process, Watson said he was fully cooperating with the league\u2019s procedures.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can\u2019t control that,\u201d Watson said. \u201cI met with the NFL a couple weeks ago, and I did everything they asked me to do. I answered every question truthfully that the NFL asked me. I spent hours with the people that they brought down. And that\u2019s all I can do is just be honest and tell them exactly what happened. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know they have a job, and so I have to respect that. And that\u2019s what we wanted to do is cooperate. And they have to make a decision [that\u2019s] best for the league.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\" \/>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>Follow Nick Geddes on Twitter <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NickGeddesNews\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">@NickGeddesNews<\/a> and on Instagram <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/nick.geddes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">@nick.geddes<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">New PointsBet Sportsbook users can make their first bets risk-free up to $2,000.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/join.pointsbet.com\/2riskfree?utm_source=Unbounce_Outkick&#038;utm_medium=Digital_Affiliate_CPA&#038;utm_campaign=Risk_Free_2_1500_500&#038;utm_term=Unbounce&#038;utm_content=Outkick&#038;promo=OUTKICK\">\u00a0If the bet loses, PointsBet will refund you in site credit.
