Rumors are Swirling That Deshaun Watson is Settling With Sexual Assault Accusers

Rich Eisen says that things are quiet with Deshaun Watson and his multiple sexual assault accusers right now because he's trying to settle the cases without going to court.  He first heard that was happening during the draft a couple of weeks ago.

Eisen is so confident that is happening he expects Watson to be on the field in 2021, probably for a team other than the Texans and likely after a suspension.  But he doesn't expect him to miss the 2021 season as others have suggested.

Eisen certainly is Ian Rapaport, but he does have plenty of connections in the league.  It wouldn't surprise me at all if Watson is somehow able to get himself out of serious trouble.

The NFL doesn't want this hanging over their heads all season either.
