Deshaun Watson facing new lawsuit stemming from alleged 2020 massage

BEREA, Ohio -- Another woman has filed a civil lawsuit against Deshaun Watson, alleging the suspended Cleveland Browns quarterback pressured her into oral sex during a massage session in 2020.

It is the 26th known civil lawsuit filed against Watson, accusing him of inappropriate sexual misconduct or sexual assault during massages.

In the lawsuit filed Thursday in Harris County (Texas), Watson is accused of soliciting the plaintiff over Instagram with a direct message for a massage at the Houstonian hotel room in Texas in December 2020, while he was a member of the Texans.
