Lawyer for Watson Accusers Says His Clients Felt Disrespected by NFL in Meetings

Trevor Ruszkowski/USA TODAY Sports

Houston attorney Tony Buzbee, who is representing the women accusing Deshaun Watson of sexual misconduct, says several of his clients have met with the NFL, and they felt they were not respected by league investigators during the first three meetings.

Buzbee told Fox 26 in Houston on Wednesday that this led to him attending a fourth meeting between the two camps. Four of the plaintiffs met with the NFL's lead investigator, Lisa Friel, and Buzbee said that he has "probably four more women who want to meet with the NFL." However, he's not sure if he'll let them due to the disrespect he felt the league showed his clients.
