Tony Buzbee Denies Approaching Deshaun Watson's Lawyer About Possible Settlements

Houston attorney Tony Buzbee, who is representing 22 women who have filed lawsuits against Deshaun Watson alleging sexual assault or misconduct, has denied he is seeking settlements on behalf of his clients.

In a post on Instagram, Buzbee wrote he never approached Rusty Hardin, Watson's lawyer, about possibly settling the lawsuits.

"When they approached us they insisted we sign this [non-disclosure agreement]," Buzbee said. "We obviously didn’t reach out to them; they begged us via the Texans to mediate. We hold the cards. The truth sometimes or most of the time hurts!!!! We approached them?
