Houston Texans GM says lawsuits filed against Deshaun Watson are 'certainly troubling'

HOUSTON -- Texans general manager Nick Caserio said the lawsuits filed against Deshaun Watson alleging sexual assault and inappropriate conduct were "certainly troubling" and something the team takes "very seriously."

Houston lawyer Tony Buzbee has filed 19 civil lawsuits against Watson on behalf of women who allege inappropriate behavior and sexaul assault during massage sessions with the Texans quarterback. Three of the lawsuits filed Sunday night accuse Watson of "purposely" touching the women with his penis and state that his "behavior is part of a disturbing pattern."

"We're certainly cognizant and aware," Caserio told the Texans All Access podcast.
