Sexual Assault Lawsuit Has Been Filed Against Texans QB Deshaun Watson

A sexual assault lawsuit has been filed against Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson.  The attorney claimed in a bizarre Instagram post that Watson went too far with a female masseuse.

From FOX 26:

Houston Texans Quarterback Deshaun Watson is facing allegations of sexual assault in a lawsuit filed on behalf of a female masseuse.

The suit was filed Tuesday by the Buzbee Law Firm.

Attorney Tony Buzbee tells FOX 26’s Isiah Carey that Watson was getting a massage from the woman when "Watson went too far."

Watson issued his own response on social media to the claims in the lawsuit.  He denies ever mistreating a woman and revealed that a six figure settlement demand was made by the attorney prior to filing the lawsuit.

An already crazy off-season for Watson just got a little crazier.  Obviously having to deal with sexual assault claims is on a whole new level compared to trying to force your way out of town.  Going the lawsuit route is an interesting and possibly telling move.

We'll all be watching how this shakes out...
