Dez Bryant Releases Statement In Support Of Deshaun Watson

NFL receiver Dez Bryant often takes to social media to share his thoughts on current events, as well as the happenings in the NFL. He is simply not afraid to say things that no one else has or will.

So it wasn’t really surprising when Bryant took to his Instagram page to show support for Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson amid his sexual assault lawsuits.

“I’m sorry you have to go through this bro and I mean it from the bottom of my heart. This needs attention so other athletes will get out of the mindset of “it won’t ever happen to them,” Bryant wrote on his Instagram.

“A lot of powerful people truly believe they gave us our powers… they only provided a platform….True or not Desahun Watson is his name.. athletes protecting your reputation should be your #1 priority”

I dont see enough athletes supporting you out loud and hoping the best outcome for all parties involved. Thats our problem… we support until proven guilty….”

Dez Bryant also sheds light to the fact that no evidence that Deshaun Watson has committed sexual assault has been presented. At this moment, it’s all Deshaun Watson’s word against the accusers’.

Bryant also doesn’t say one way or another that Deshaun Watson is innocent, but he definitely wants people to know that it is still a possibility.

Hopefully we get some more details on the Deshaun Watson allegations soon.
