Deshaun Watson’s accusers are coming to HBO.

The NFL continues to move toward making a decision on whether or not to suspend Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson for some or all of the 2022 season .First  they must decide whether to wait until the 22 civil lawsuits pending against him have resolved, but until then  some of Watson’s accusers will be speaking out.

“Several” of the women who have accused Watson of sexual misconduct during massage sessions have been interviewed by HBO’s Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel.  

Soledad O’Brien serves as the reporter on the story.

Per a press release from HBO, the women “detail the alleged abuse they suffering and share their reactions to” Watson’s $230 million contract with the Browns.

The NFL needs to make a decision on Watson for everyone’s sake. The show debuts Tuesday, May 24, at 10:00 p.m. ET.
