Yes game is in Houston.
I looked at Browns schedule yesterday with idea that 11-12 would be the number of games and figured the NFL would go with 12 to avoid at Texans as first game back. [Reply]
The Texans thing is a coincidence. If it were a 12-game suspension, he wouldn't accrue a full season and his contract would roll over to begin the following year. So it makes some sense that they'd settle at that threshold.
In other news, first the Haslams and now Watson using the term 'triggered.' I cannot tell you how much I detest this organization.

Deshaun Watson on why he’s apologizing then: “For everybody that was affected by this situation. There were a lot of people that were triggered.” [Reply]

Anyone that uses the word triggered deserves to be “triggered” right in the nuts. [Reply]
