While only one of the women had filed a lawsuit against the team, the others intended to make legal claims against the Texans before the settlements were reached, attorney Tony Buzbee said.
Thirty women who had accused the Houston Texans of turning a blind eye to allegations that their former quarterback Deshaun Watson was sexually assaulting and harassing women have settled their legal claims against the team, their attorney said Friday.
In separate lawsuits, 24 women accused Watson of exposing himself, touching them with his penis or kissing them against their will during massage appointments while he played for the Texans. One woman alleged Watson forced her to perform oral sex. Last month, Buzbee announced 20 of those 24 lawsuits have been settled.
In the lawsuit filed last month against the Texans, a woman accused the team and some of its employees of having been told or being aware of Watson's troubling behavior and"known tendency to push boundaries during massage sessions." The lawsuit alleged the Texans provided Watson with various resources, including rooms at a Houston hotel, massage tables and a non-disclosure agreement the women were told to sign, that allowed the quarterback"to further his misconduct with women.
