Sexual Assault Lawsuit Filed Against Deshaun Watson

A sexual assault lawsuit has been filed against Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson, Houston attorney Tony Buzbee disclosed on social media Tuesday night.

Buzbee told FOX 26’s Isiah Carey that while Watson was getting a massage from a woman that the 25-year-old allegedly "went too far." The Buzbee Law Firm filed the lawsuit on Tuesday.

Watson responded to the claims on Tuesday night, posting a statement on Twitter. He denied the allegations.

"As a result of a social media post by a publicity-seeking plaintiff's lawyer, I recently became aware of a lawsuit that has apparently been filed against me," Watson wrote.
