Browns’ Deshaun Watson on rust

BEREA, Ohio — After struggling in his first game in 700 days, Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson said he expects to be better Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals.

“I don’t know when it’s going to come back,” Watson said Thursday. “I don’t know if it was going to be last week, this week. My job is to just keep getting better and when it clicks, it clicks, and everyone will feel that.”

Watson served an 11-game suspension for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy by committing sexual assault, as defined by the league, on massage therapists. He also sat out all of last season after demanding a trade from the Houston Texans.

In Week 13, against his former team, Watson failed to lead the Browns to an offensive touchdown. He also completed just 12 of 22 passes for 131 yards and threw an interception in the end zone. Cleveland still won the game 27-14 thanks to a punt return touchdown and two defensive scores.

Watson, who led the NFL with 4,823 passing yards in 2020, said that several of his misfires were due to issues with “mechanics” and “fundamentals.” In addition to saying he still needed to improve his conditioning, Watson admitted it was emotional going to back to Houston on the heels of the suspension.

“The last week, it was a lot. The anticipation to be back on the field. The anticipation of going back to my former team. The anticipation, playing against former teammates and being in front of a crowd that used to cheer for me at the time,” said Watson, who was booed heavily during the game, but also had plenty of fans seeking his autograph before the game kicked off.

“So, all that stuff was definitely, it was a lot. I’m human. So, I definitely have things running through my mind. I’m glad that’s out the way, I’m glad we got the win. I’m just trying to look forward to this week. It’s going to be a hostile environment in Cincinnati. It’s going to be fun and we just got to go out there and just make sure we execute the game plan.”

Watson was suspended after being accused by more than two dozen women of sexual assault and other sexual misconduct during massage sessions. Watson wasn’t charged criminally. He has settled 23 of the civil lawsuits against him; two lawsuits remain active. Watson has denied all wrongdoing in the past, though he has declined to answer questions about the accusations or his league-mandated therapy since returning from the suspension.

The Browns are 5-7 but have won two games in a row to keep their faint playoff hopes alive.

Watson said as he regains his feel, readjusts to the speed of the game and adapts to working with his new receivers as well as Browns coach and offensive playcaller Kevin Stefanski, he will improve off the way he played in Houston — beginning this weekend against the Bengals.

“It was my first time in a live action with Kevin. He’s got to feel how I feel or I got to feel how he feel. And we’ve got to be able to work on the same page and see the same thing through the same lenses,” Watson said. “Every receiver is different. All those guys are different route runners. So being able to know how they’re going to come out when they’re going to come out, how they’re going to come out and where they’re going to be.

“It takes a little bit of time. But I’ve got to be able to adjust quick.”

Deshaun Watson returns from ban, declines to express remorse

HOUSTON (AP) — Deshaun Watson signed autographs, posed for selfies, ignored the boos and earned a sloppy win.

Again, he declined to express remorse for behavior that earned him an 11-game suspension.

Back in his old home to play his first game in 700 days, Watson showed plenty of rust debuting with Cleveland, but the Browns didn’t need him to do much in a 27-14 victory over the Houston Texans on Sunday.

After signing jerseys for Texans and Browns fans and taking pictures with a few more before the game, Watson was overwhelmed with boos once it started. He heard jeers before each snap in the first half and for much of the afternoon.

“They’re supposed to boo. I’m a Cleveland Brown now,” Watson said.

Watson has been accused by more than two dozen women of sexual harassment and assault during massage sessions. He has settled 23 civil lawsuits brought by the women, while two others, including one filed in October, are pending.

Asked if he felt remorseful for his actions in his return to Houston, Watson said his legal team told him not to address questions about his suspension.

“Of course, it was a tough situation,” he said. “The suspension was tough but, at the same time, my main focus was just to try to be 1-0 as a football player today.”

Pressed further, Watson said: “I was just excited to be back on the field today. I did everything I was asked, was required to do. I did all that.”

Watson had several supporters in the stands before the game, while a group of the women who accused him of sexual misconduct also planned to attend. Attorney Tony Buzbee, who represents the women, didn’t respond to a text message seeking to confirm their attendance. He said earlier in the week about 10 women wanted to attend “to kind of make the statement, ’Hey we’re still here. We matter.’”

One fan walked into NRG Stadium wearing a derogatory shirt in Browns colors that includes text saying “I need a massage.” He was joined by a fan wearing Watson’s No. 4 Browns jersey.

Fans in the parking lot set up a fake massage table with a mannequin wearing a red Texans jersey and a towel.

The few fans in their seats when Watson and the Browns jogged onto the field about an hour before kickoff booed.

“It is what it is,” Watson said of the boos. “I can’t control what the fans do. My job is to go out there and execute.”

He didn’t do that too well.

Watson finished 12-of-22 passing for 131 yards and one interception. The three-time Pro Bowl quarterback posted the worst passer rating of his NFL career at 53.4. The Browns (5-7) got two defensive touchdowns and a special teams score to beat the Texans (1-10-1).

After an interception gave the Browns their first possession at their 43, Watson threw two incomplete passes. He spun away from a sack on third down, and fans cheered when his throw to David Bell hit the ground.

Watson’s first completed pass on his third attempt resulted in a turnover when Anthony Schwartz fumbled after a 12-yard gain. Watson later drove the Browns to Houston’s 11 before throwing a pick in the end zone.

“We don’t expect him to be Superman after he hasn’t played in two years,” All-Pro defensive end Myles Garrett said.

Watson sat out the 2021 season after demanding a trade from Houston. After two grand juries in Texas declined to indict him over allegations of sexual harassment and assault, the Browns traded several draft picks to get Watson and then signed him to a fully guaranteed $235 million contract.

During warmups, Watson signed jerseys for fans behind the end zone. An 18-year-old man from East Texas got Watson’s autograph on his Browns jersey. A couple from Houston wearing Texans jerseys also got Watson’s signature on their jerseys.

“We don’t really know what happened and everyone deserves a second chance,” said Sherry Holden, explaining her support.

Several Browns fans said they were uncomfortable rooting for Watson.

“I’m cheering for the jersey and the team but it’s hard to accept him as my quarterback,” said Brandon Collins, who traveled from Ohio for the game.

The NFL wanted to suspend Watson for at least one season but settled for 11 games after an independent arbiter initially gave him a six-game ban. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell pointed to former U.S. District Judge Sue Robinson calling Watson’s behavior “egregious” and “predatory” in seeking the full suspension.

Watson also was fined $5 million and required to undergo professional counseling and therapy. Watson has maintained his innocence but also apologized to the women he impacted and

The Browns went 4-7 with veteran Jacoby Brissett filling in for Watson.

Coach Kevin Stefanski committed to starting Watson next week and emphasized him getting his first game out of the way.

“He looked very sharp in practice and he’s excited for the next one so he understood this one was going to be different,” Stefanski said.

Deshaun Watson struggles, is booed in return with Browns

HOUSTON — Quarterback Deshaun Watson struggled in his first game back playing against his former team.

Returning from an 11-game suspension for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy by committing sexual assault, as defined by the league, Watson failed to lead the Cleveland Browns on a touchdown drive Sunday against the Houston Texans.

Cleveland still defeated the league’s worst team 27-14 behind two defensive touchdowns and a punt-return score from Donovan Peoples-Jones — the first time in 33 years the Browns scored three non-offensive touchdowns.

Watson completed 12 of 22 passes for 131 yards in his first regular-season game in exactly 700 days. He also threw an interception in the end zone that negated Cleveland’s best offensive scoring opportunity.

Despite NRG Stadium being half-empty, Watson was loudly booed before every Browns snap throughout the game.

“They’re supposed to boo,” Watson said. “I’m a Cleveland Brown now, and we’re on the road, so they’re supposed to boo.”

The Browns traded for Watson in March, sending the Texans three first-round draft picks. Cleveland then signed Watson to a five-year deal worth $230 million guaranteed, the richest contract in NFL history.

Watson demanded a trade from the Texans after the 2020 season. He was then accused by more than two dozen women of sexual assault and other sexual misconduct during massage sessions before he sat out the entire 2021 season.

A few of those women had planned to attend Sunday’s game, according to their attorney Tony Buzbee, who had said he would be at the game with them.

Over the summer, Watson agreed to settle 23 of the 24 civil lawsuits against him. Two lawsuits against him remain outstanding, including one filed on Oct. 13. Two other women filed criminal complaints against Watson but did not sue him.

Watson wasn’t charged criminally. He has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing and said people haven’t been interested in hearing his side of the story.

As part of the suspension settlement between the NFL and the NFL Players Association, Watson also had to pay a $5 million fine and participate in a treatment program.

On Thursday, speaking for the first time since August, Watson refused to answer any “non-football questions.”

After Sunday’s game, Watson was asked whether he had any remorse for the actions the league described as “predatory” and “egregious,” which led to his suspension. Once again, Watson declined to answer those questions.

“That’s something that, legal and clinical, we’ve answered before. And they don’t want me to address anything like that,” he said . “Of course, it was a tough situation. The suspension was tough. But at the same time, my main focus is just trying to be 1-0 as a football player today.

“I was just excited to be back on the field today. I did everything that I was asked and was required to do. I did all that. And I was able to play and be on the field today.”

Watson took a break during his pregame warmup Sunday to sign autographs for fans, some wearing his No. 4 Browns or Texans jersey. Watson also posed for selfies and photographs with fans.

Sarah Flores, a Houston season-ticket holder who had her red Texans No. 4 jersey signed by Watson, said she believed Watson was “100%” innocent of the allegations made against him.

“Somebody as successful as he is would never go and jeopardize his career like that,” she said.

Outside the stadium in the parking lot, a Texans tailgate set up a mock massage table with a mannequin wearing Watson’s Texans jersey with a sign that said, “complimentary unlicensed massages!!! Now serving #4.”

Nearby, a fan was wearing an orange Browns shirt with “FREE WATSON” on the front and “ALL HE WANTED WAS A HAPPY ENDING” on the back. As the fan walked up to NRG Stadium, he led a “Here we go Brownies” chant alongside a pair of women wearing brown-colored Watson jerseys.

Inside, a Texans fan held up a sign that read: “I would rather be 1-9-1 than have Deshaun Watson as my quarterback.”

Stewart Mathieson, a Houston fan from Scotland who bought pregame sideline passes for this game, repurposed his blue Texans Watson jersey with the message “JUSTICE 4 WOMEN.” The front of the jersey had the words “BROWNS SHAME” stitched below the No. 4.

“Some of my Browns friends [in Scotland] have given up supporting the team because of Watson,” said Mathieson, who flew in for the game with his nephew, Christopher. “Am I going to boo him? Yeah, I’m going to boo him.”

Deshaun Watson again accused of sexual misconduct in new lawsuit

Another woman accused suspended Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson of sexual misconduct in a lawsuit filed Thursday in Texas.

The woman, identified in the lawsuit only as Jane Doe, alleges that Watson “attempted to solicit sexually related acts with [the] Plaintiff including intercourse” during a December 2020 massage therapy session in Houston. The woman “refused to have sex with Watson” but “he was able to pressure her into oral sex,” according to the lawsuit, which was filed in Harris County (Tex.) District Court.

It is the 26th lawsuit filed against Watson by women accusing him of sexual misconduct during massage sessions, and becomes the second active lawsuit. One suit was withdrawn and Watson reached settlements with 23 of his accusers, according to the attorney for the women, Anthony Buzbee.

Deshaun Watson suspended 11 games, fined $5 million under settlement

The woman who filed Thursday’s lawsuit is not represented by Buzbee. The attorney listed on her lawsuit is Anissah M. Nguyen of Houston.

Watson was not available to comment, while his attorney, Rusty Hardin, did not immediately respond to a request for comment Thursday night. Watson has not been charged with a crime and previously has denied the allegations made against him by the other women.

“I’m moving on with my career, with my life, and I’ll continue to stand on my innocence,” Watson said at an Aug. 18 news conference at the Browns’ training facility in Berea, Ohio. “Just because settlements and things like that happen doesn’t mean that a person is guilty for anything.”

It was not immediately clear Thursday night whether the new allegation could affect the settlement between the NFL and the NFL Players Association by which Watson was suspended for 11 games and fined $5 million for violating the league’s personal conduct policy. Neither the league nor the NFLPA immediately responded to a request for comment. The settlement reportedly covered the cases considered by Sue L. Robinson, the former U.S. district judge who is the disciplinary officer jointly appointed by the league and NFLPA, and any substantially similar violations before the date of the agreement between the league and union.

The settlement came after the NFL appealed the six-game suspension originally imposed by Robinson. The NFL had sought an indefinite suspension of at least one full season.

Watson returned Monday to the Browns’ training facility, the first day he was permitted to rejoin the team under the terms of his suspension. He may resume practicing Nov. 14 and is eligible to play in a game Dec. 4 in Houston against the Texans, his former team. The settlement also required Watson to undergo a professional evaluation and treatment plan. The Browns did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The new lawsuit lists its causes of action as civil assault and the intentional infliction of emotional distress, and seeks unspecified damages. It says that the woman is a licensed massage therapist who was working from home during the pandemic and traveling to meet some clients. Watson contacted her via direct message on Instagram, according to the lawsuit, seeking a massage on Dec. 17, 2020. The woman had no previous contact with Watson and had not worked with any other Texans players, the lawsuit says.

She met Watson at the Houstonian Hotel on or about Dec. 18, 2020, according to the lawsuit. As the woman set up her massage table, Watson went into a bathroom, removed his clothes and came out wearing only a towel, the lawsuit says. He “continually pressured” the woman “into massaging his private area,” the lawsuit says, then “removed his towel and offered to let her ‘get on top.’” The woman refused to have intercourse but was pressured into oral sex, according to the lawsuit, which added that Watson paid her $300.

The woman has “suffered from severe depression and anxiety” due to Watson’s behavior and is seeking counseling, the lawsuit says.

Agent’s Take: The economic ramifications of Deshaun Watson’s 11-game suspension

The NFL and NFLPA reached a settlement on Thursday relating to Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson discipline for violating the league’s personal conduct policy. Watson is suspended for Cleveland’s first 11 games of the regular season without pay and fined $5 million. He must also undergo a mandatory evaluation by behavioral experts and follow their treatment plan.

The settlement is the final resolution of the disciplinary process, ending the NFL’s appeal of the six-game suspension without a fine disciplinary officer Sue L. Robinson, who was jointly appointed by the NFL and NFLPA, had imposed on Watson. Robinson found Watson in violation by engaging in sexual assault, conduct that poses a genuine danger to the safety and well-being of another person and conduct that undermines or puts at risk the integrity of the NFL in her 16-page ruling. The settlement prohibits the NFLPA from pursuing legal remedies through the federal court system.

Prior to the settlement, the NFL had been seeking an indefinite suspension where Watson could apply for reinstatement after a year from Peter C. Harvey, who had been selected by commissioner Roger Goodell to handle the appeal. The 11-game ban is the longest suspension ever imposed under the personal conduct policy for sexual misconduct. What is unknown is whether Robinson’s mandate that Watson’s massage therapy to be limited to team-approved massage therapists for the rest of his career remains. Watson’s punishment is in line with what the NFL was seeking in settlement talks that took place before Robinson’s decision. The NFLPA rejected the NFL’s reported offer of a 12-game suspension and a $10 million fine.

Watson’s suspension goes into effect on Aug. 30 when the final roster cutdown to 53 players takes place for NFL teams. Under the NFL’s collective bargaining agreement, Watson will be allowed back in team facilities and permitted to participate in limited activities during the second half of a suspension on terms similar to players who are suspended under the NFL’s performance enhancing substances policy. On Oct. 10, the day after the Browns’ Week 5 contest against the Chargers, his permissible activities will include attending team meetings, individually working out with the Browns’ strength and conditioning coach, meeting individually with Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski, offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt and quarterbacks coach Drew Petzing and getting treatment/rehab from the Browns’ medical staff and trainers. Watson will able to practice during the last two weeks of the suspension beginning on Nov. 14. The suspension will be lifted on Nov. 28. Watson will be eligible to play in the Browns’ Week 13 game against the Texans, Watson’s former team, on Dec. 4. His return will be in Week 13 instead of Week 12 because Cleveland has a bye in Week 9. 

Many of the other NFL teams feel that the fully guaranteed, five-year contract worth $230 million Watson signed in March as a part of his trade from the Texans was structured in a manner that was designed to minimize the financial consequences of the suspension. Without pay pertains to base salary with suspensions. Watson received a $44.965 million signing bonus and his 2022 base salary is $1.035 million, his league minimum base salary in the deal. He forfeits $632,500 (or 11/18ths of his $1.035 million 2022 base salary) since he earns $57,500 each of the 18 weeks in the regular season.

The Browns will get $632,500 of 2022 cap relief from the base salary Watson won’t earn because of the suspension. Presumably, the $57,500 from the Week 9 bye will be handled like suspensions under the NFL substance abuse policy. It should get paid in equal installments over the remainder of the season after Watson serves his suspension. Watson’s contract doesn’t toll with his 11-game suspension. His contract years will run as intended, meaning his deal ends after the 2026 season. His 2023 through 2026 salary cap numbers will each remain at $54.993 million ($46 million base salary and $8.993 million in signing bonus proration).

Had there not been a settlement where Harvey gave Watson the year-long suspension the NFL was seeking his contract would have tolled. Essentially, Watson’s contract would have been frozen and resumed in 2023 with tolling. His 2022 contract year would have become his 2023 contract year and additional years in the contract would have also gotten pushed back one year. Instead of Watson’s contract expiring after the 2026 season, it would have ended after the 2027. Although the contract would have been pushed back a year, the signing bonus proration of $8.993 million annually from 2022 through 2026 would have remained intact. 

None of Watson’s $44.935 million signing bonus is in jeopardy, thanks to language in the contract. Watson’s salary guarantees won’t void either. Contract guarantees typically void for an exhaustive list of defaults by a player. Upon voiding, the player would still have the opportunity to earn the salary that is no longer guaranteed on a non-guaranteed basis.

The relevant language about Watson’s signing bonus is as follows: 

” … a suspension by the NFL solely in connection with matters disclosed to Club in writing pursuant to Paragraph 42 which results in Player’s unavailability to Club solely for games during the 2022 or 2023 NFL League Years shall not subject Player to forfeiture of Signing Bonus.”

Without this language, the Browns would have had the right to ask Watson for one-eighteenth of the $8.993 million of signing bonus attributed to the 2022 salary cap for each week of the 18-week regular season missed with the 11-game suspension. The Browns would have had the ability to recapture $5,495,722 (or 11/18ths of $8.993 million) from Watson.

The pertinent language keeping Watson’s guarantees from voiding is below:

“…it shall not constitute a failure or refusal to practice or play with the Club and Player shall not be in default if: … (iii) Player is suspended solely in connection with matters disclosed to Club in writing pursuant to Paragraph 42 which results in Player’s unavailability to Club solely for games during the 2022 or 2023 NFL League Years.”

The language is significant because it prevents the Browns from potentially getting out of the contract without massive cap consequences because of misbehavior that was known prior to the trade. In other words, the Browns can’t exit the deal because of accusations stemming from the personal conduct policy suspension. Practically speaking, the Browns wouldn’t have during the early part of the contract if possible after giving up 2022, 2023 and 2024 first-round picks, a 2022 fourth-round pick, a 2023 third-round pick and a 2024 fourth-round pick to get Watson and a 2024 sixth-round pick.

The suspension puts to bed a 17-month ordeal that won’t be easily forgotten. Watson still maintaining his innocence Thursday despite Robinson calling his conduct predatory and “more egregious than any before reviewed by the NFL” is overwhelmingly considered disappointing. Last week’s apology rings hollow and seems like something he made specifically so a settlement could be reached.
