The Houston Texans have reached settlements with 30 women who accused former Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson of various levels of sexual misconduct, according to attorney Tony Buzbee.
The woman who filed the lawsuit against the Texans will have her case dismissed with prejudice once the settlement is completed. A case that gets dismissed with prejudice cannot be filed again in the same court.
A total of 24 women have filed lawsuits against Watson, who settled 20 of those cases in June. The Texans settled with 30 women. Information about the additional six women in the Texans' settlement is not known. The terms of the Texans' settlement is confidential and will not be revealed, per Buzbee.
Buzbee said there was a difference in the way the Texans handled the allegations compared to Watson's legal team. "I will have no further comment on the allegations or the Texans' alleged role, other than to say that there is a marked contrast in the way in which the Texans addressed these allegations, and the way in which Watson's team has done so," he said.against Watson when they first emerged. The team said the settlements were"not an admission of any wrongdoing, but instead a clear stand against any form of sexual assault and misconduct.
Two Texas grand juries declined to indict Watson on criminal charges. Watson was traded to the Browns after the first grand jury
