timesofindia.indiatimes.com

The NFL has concluded its investigation into new sexual assault allegations against Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson. The league found insufficient evidence to impose any suspension or fine, marking a significant difference from Watson's previous 11-game suspension in 2022. The recent lawsuit, filed in September and later settled, was unrelated to earlier allegations. Watson's legal team confirmed the case was resolved in October, and the NFL stated the matter is now closed. Watson has faced multiple allegations in the past, resulting in settlements and a hefty fine. He has played only 19 games over three seasons due to suspensions and injuries, impacting the Browns' investment in him.
