The Deshaun Watson disciplinary process finally reached resolution Thursday after the NFL and avid gamers union agreed to an 11-game suspension for the Cleveland Browns’ not too long ago obtained Pro Bowl quarterback, who will even pay a $5 million effective.
It’s a extra serious punishment than the original six-game ban issued by former U.S. District Judge Sue Robinson, one that still would have price Watson a pittance from a groundbreaking contract that promises him $230 million. The new compromise between the league and NFL Players Association is definitely harsher, even though not likely to be embraced as enough by means of the 2 dozen ladies who accused Watson of sexual misconduct or the NFL’s hundreds of thousands of feminine fanatics – in particular those that toughen Cleveland.
