A major update has just been revealed in the case against Deshaun Watson.
On Thursday, NFL sider Josina Anderson took to Twitter and revealed that there is a recording of an “adult son of 1 of 12 women the NFL interviewed in the Deshaun Watson case” that reveals him calling out his mother for lying.
He spoke on prior conversations they had where she complimented Watson for his behavior during a massage, only to switch it up later once she heard the allegations against him.
He also revealed that his mother would reward him if he stayed silent.
“I’m told there’s a recording of an interview with the adult son of 1 of 12 women the NFL interviewed in the Deshaun Watson case —stating his mom initially was complimentary of Watson in their conversations after the massage, but later switched her account and tone after
..negative allegations surfaced about Watson. The son intimated his mother intended to reward his silence, per league source. There’s a feeling that the NFL was initially cagey about details they learned from the woman’s son—after only mentioning they interviewed him

..in their report. The son’s recording was later reviewed by Watson’s side revealing the aforementioned details —presumably illuminating why this particular accuser was not included with the 5 women the NFL ultimately focused on at the hearing.
I was also told the NFL presented no evidence of violence, force, threat or coercion in the allegations of the 5 women they focused on at the hearing before Sue Robinson.”
Last month, Watson settled 20 of the currently outstanding 24 cases against him.
Houston attorney Tony Buzbee noted that those cases will be dismissed in his official statement.
“Today, I announce that all cases against Deshaun Watson, with the exception of four, have settled. We are working through the paperwork related to those settlements. Once we have done so, those particular cases will be dismissed. The terms and amounts of the settlements are confidential. We won’t comment further on the settlements or those cases.”
There are still four cases against him pending, and that includes the original accuser, Ashley Solis.
“Ashley Solis is one of the heroes of this story. Her case has not settled and thus her story and that of the other three brave women will continue,” said Buzbee. “I look forward to trying these cases in due course, consistent with other docket obligations and the court’s schedule.”
Watson is also subject to potential penalty from the NFL, with commissioner Roger Goodell still working through a probe into any potential wrongdoing by the veteran quarterback, who could be hit with a substantial suspension.
With this round of conclusions to most of the ongoing cases, it’s likely the NFL will rule soon on the matter.
