Dolphins' Chris Grier Denies Asking Deshaun Watson Accusers to Sign NDAs

Miami Dolphins general manager Chris Grier has denied the organization had any involvement in the discussions about having Deshaun Watson's accusers sign a non-disclosure agreement.

"Any suggestion that this organization ridiculous and categorically false," Grier told reporters on Wednesday. "To say we would be involved in that is flat wrong. That pisses me off."

Watson is facing 22 civil lawsuits and 10 police complaints from women accusing him of sexual assault or misconduct committed during massage sessions. Two of the police complaints are from women who are not known to have filed lawsuits.

Per Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk, Miami's trade talks with the Houston Texans for Watson broke down after the Texans increased their asking price when they "caught wind of the growing possibility that the 22 civil lawsuits would be settled.
