Deshaun Watson met with at least 66 women for massages over a 17-month period, which was far more than previously known.

More than two dozen women have said Watson harassed or assaulted them during massage appointments. 

The conduct by Watson was also, knowingly or not, enabled by the Houston Texans. A team representative also furnished him with a nondisclosure agreement after a woman who is now suing him threatened online to expose his behavior.

Watson has said publicly that he hired about 40 different therapists across his five seasons in Houston, but The Times’s reporting found that he booked appointments with at least 66 different women in just the 17 months from fall 2019 through spring 2021.

Most of the women Watson saw for massages did not sue or call the police. But even some who did not complain said Watson came looking for sex.
