Tony Buzbee, the attorney representing the 22 women suing Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson, said settlement talks between the two sides broke down recently because of language Watson's legal team insisted they include in nondisclosure agreements.
"In what was submitted to us, there were nondisclosure agreements and many of the women pushed back on those," Buzbee told Houston's Fox26 on Tuesday.
Watson was not traded ahead of the NFL's deadline earlier this week, despite countless rumors about a possible deal. According to NFL Network, Watson not settling his legal situation resulted in him not getting traded.
