NFL commissioner Roger Goodell revealed on Tuesday that the league is “nearing the end of the investigation” into the actions of Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson. However, no timeline was provided on when a ruling would be issued by the disciplinary officer.

According to The MMQB’s Albert Breer on Monday, it’s expected that the league will make its decision on whether the quarterback will face a suspension or not before the 2022 season begins.
