At least 12 women are now suing Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson for sexual misconduct, Houston attorney Tony Buzbee said at a Friday-afternoon press conference.
The Buzbee Law Firm is representing 12 women in suits against Watson and is currently talking with an additional 10 women who have made similar allegations against Watson, Buzbee said.
The Texans quarterback is currently facing seven civil lawsuits, all describing instances of sexual harassment and assault, with the other five expected to be filed in the coming days. A majority of the 12 women work in the massage industry, Buzbee said.
