Pleads innocent: Deshaun Watson © APA / getty / CARMEN MANDATO
NFL quarterback Deshaun Watson’s attorney has dismissed allegations of harassment against his mandate.
March 24, 2021
“Any allegation that Deshaun has forced a woman to have a sexual act is completely wrong,” wrote Rusty Hardin on Tuesday (local time) according to US media in a statement. The comment was published before the 15th and 16th lawsuits against 25-year-old Watson became known.
The Houston Texans playmaker is charged with taking advantage of private massages, stripping naked and verbally encouraging women to engage in sexual activity. Forced oral sex is said to have occurred in at least one case. So far there are no criminal proceedings.
According to a complaint, there should have been a case of abuse this month. According to the US media, the NFL and his team said they were aware of the allegations. Watson had made his request to move to another team public before the allegations became known.
