This is likely the end of what we will hear from Watson’s accusers, with confidential settlements in all but one case.
Cleveland attorney Jared Klebanow, who was not affiliated with the case, gave us his takeaway on the last 24 hours.
“I do think Deshaun Watson’s camp is interested in closure and him and his attorney have to understand that as long as these civil lawsuits continue, he’ll be getting talked about and getting pressed. The NFL doesn’t want that and I don’t think Deshaun Watson wants that, so by settling these three recent cases overnight, I think he has one left and it will not surprise me if that case resolves before trial,” he said.
“After lengthy and intense negotiations, I can confirm that, late last night, our team resolved three of the four remaining civil cases with Deshaun Watson. We will continue to discuss the remaining case with Watson’s legal team, as appropriate. This case started because one woman had the fortitude to step forward and make her voice heard. Her courage inspired many others with the same experience. None of this saga would have occurred without that one brave voice. One person can make a difference.
I have been asked repeatedly about my thoughts in regard to the NFL’s proceeding with Deshaun Watson. Although some of my clients do have strong feelings in that regard, I have nothing meaningful to say about that process. I’ve said in the beginning that the civil process and the NFL’s disciplinary process are very different. My role was to advance the cause of my clients, in civil court—nothing more. I’ve done that. I am extremely proud of these women and our legal team’s efforts.
