Tony Buzbee, who represents the plaintiffs who filed civil lawsuits against Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson, posed a single question to the NFL during a press conference Thursday.

“Mr. Goodell, what will you do?”

The press conference comes in the wake of the league’s announcement Wednesday it is appealing disciplinary officer Sue L. Robinson’s ruling of a six-game suspension for the quarterback.
