Deshaun Watson Reportedly Meeting With NFL Amid Uncertain Future

Will Deshaun Watson be allowed to play for the Cleveland Browns when the season begins?

Even though the sexual assault cases against Watson were dropped in court, the NFL is still undergoing an investigation into the star QB.

When Dodgers pitcher Trevor Bauer was suspended by the MLB in a similar situation, many were quick to realize that the same fate could technically be handed down to Deshaun Watson by the NFL.

According to Browns insider Tony Grossi, the NFL investigation into Deshaun Watson might leak into next season and beyond.

“Originally, I thought a suspension was unavoidable. Now there is a possibility a suspension could be delayed until 2023 until the 22 civil cases against Watson are tried or settled.”

Still, it seems like a Deshaun Watson decision might take some time. But perhaps we’ll get some more clarity not the situation after the meeting takes place this week.
