Deshaun Watson could have prevented every lawsuit – Mike Florio | Pro Football Talk | NBC Sports

Brian Felt

He should have run to the 100,000 grand deal. Ego I guess?

Jo NoSaY

I would assume these 4 are the same originals that said no to the settlement at the very beginning when the number was 22?

    Champ From LA!

    No…I believe the first complaint…and had agreed to the original $100K…..refused to accept the settlement offer this occasion.

OG James

deshaun should’ve settled this a long time ago if he wanted to play football

    Pimpin is a non contact sport

    Couple problems. I don’t think it’s as easy as settling 123. What if he wanted to settle but they didn’t agree or two sides couldn’t agree? There’s so many elements to this it’s crazy

    OG James

    @Pimpin is a non contact sport obviously but the process of starting it last yr and the evidence that has come out more than likely he could’ve settled it this yr

    JStan

    If you remember it would’ve been settled last fall..some of the women allegedly didn’t want NDA’s

    Champ From LA!

    depends

Jaime Holguin

Something that came to mind while listening to you on Rich Eisen’s show. What if Deshaun or Rusty Hardin try to fenagle his innocence publicly like they were just nuisance claims and the others will be dealt with in court. Could that not possibly provoke another wave of respondents including terms being disclosed?

Billy Rhymer

This is like Simms calling his shot with Josh Allen

Coach yvantE

Once the public was made aware of the number of cases, DW and his team stalled enough, trying to maintain their innocence in the eye of the public so that it’ll get to the point where they ( DW believers) on their own, would come to the realization that the best thing to do is settle even if he’s innocent.

Remedy This - Dream World

what if he said to the remaining 4….a million after taxes….take it or leave it.😆 he can afford it.🤔

    Modifidious

    A million ain’t much especially with his contract.

Michael Michael

As you said, should have happened sooner! Excellent review.

    Brandon Mason Show

    Sooner… agreed 100%

    Dentatus Dentatus

    But had he settled sooner, would he have received that record contract? 😕

    Michael Michael

    @Dentatus Dentatus Ironically, you may be correct! We will never know.

Devin King

amazing great job Mike

mightyred1967

He could have prevented the cases by keeping with the clubs physio and not being a predator

    Eddie Bush

    66 masseuse in 18 months

Hugh Gurney

“Playmakers – The Cookbook” filled with the favourite recipes of the NFL’s All-Pro players and coaches

Larry Hammer

NFL starting QB! Knows dozens of plays doesn’t know the difference between a registered massage therapist and a happy ending massage! CLUE its in the REGISTERED part!

    Zen Kobe

    Bruh alot of these women weren’t licensed tho… l

Dill B

Even on hiatus dam Florio can’t help himself he loves this Watson story and I love his knowledge and expertise

Giovanni Pietersz

He handled the legal situation the same way he handled those massages, with stupidity

Sarah Christine

Mr. Florio, I have a legal question regarding Watson. Can any statements or admissions he makes to the NFL investigator be used against him in his civil proceedings? Or are they protected?

Phil Anderson

Incredible how calculating Andrew Barry, Kevin Stefanski and Paul Depodestra had been building the team up to this disastrous decision to give so much away to get Watson, who will likely be both suspended, plus a distraction for a long, long time.

Eric Haynes

Honestly I used to go to AMP’s in Honolulu once or twice a month in my late 30’s until I got tired of them. So yes it does make sense that a much younger 20 something like Deshaun would go about 4x a month. I won’t say he’s an outright dumbass but I know that when you’re in the continental U.S.(especially NOW) “massages” are not worth it, too much heat. Honolulu, being over 3,000 miles away was much more liberal, at least back 20 years ago.

    Apollo&Athena

    “I went to many, many masseuses, so it’s not a big deal” You’re not a POS star athlete, though

Timothy Antoine

Arrogance can be a real problem , just ask Deshawn Watson !

Jennifer

If he settled in the beginning with Ashley only, it is likely that the behavior that triggered this public incident continues. He doesn’t think he was wrong so why would he stop.

Richard Roberto

I thought there were 26 lawsuits, not 24. What happened to the two most recent cases?
