If Watson says nothing happened, but they actually had consensual sex then he might look guilty.
I would assume (and hope) that his legal counsel is carefully reviewing anything and everything he says until this passes.
I'm guessing Goodell and owners are in full on damage control here and are treading lightly. If it's just below the line sex stuff this becomes open season on a ton of player hook ups or similar arrangements. Of course if it's legit assault that's a whole different story. [Reply]

I haven't really had time to follow this story, other than what I've read here, but it doesn't make sense to me that this is a set up by the Texans. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't put it past the most dysfunctional NFL front office, but:
1. Watson doesn't want to be there, so why wouldn't you try to get something out of him?
2. This only worsens the ability to get that "something" out of him
3. In the event that no deals can be made, do you really want to keep Watson at this point?
4. If the allegations turn out to be true, you're likely either not going to have him anyways...

You never want to rule out spite as a motive. Or greed for that matter. On the other hand, you can never underestimate the stupidity of a professional athlete. [Reply]
This has nothing to do with anything but years ago I feel like I saw a video of Watson horsing around with Mia Khalifa. IIRC, they were playing basketball on one of those mini hoops you can post up on your door with the tiny, squishy ball.
