Nine times. Attorney Tony Buzbee said Thursday he has been asked to represent nine women who have brought sexual assault accusations against Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson. Buzbee’s announcement came just a couple of hours before he posted a “confidential” letter from the NFL that says the league was conducting its own investigation into the allegations against Watson.
“The Buzbee Law Firm has now been hired by nine women to bring cases against Deshaun Watson. The allegations are similar. We have filed three, and, as we complete our due diligence, will file the remaining ones in due course. We are talking to several others,” Buzbee wrote.
Buzbee posted a screenshot of a letter sent to him by the NFL that stated they were investigating allegations against Watson. Although the letter clearly says it’s “confidential,” Buzbee posted it after the Texans publicly acknowledged the league’s investigation.

So far there have been three lawsuits filed, and they are “civil lawsuits,” not criminal.
Watson has reportedly hired Houston attorney Rusty Hardin to represent him. Watson wanting off the Texans doesn’t seem all that important right now.
