Deshaun Watson will reportedly have two additional lawsuits filed against him, per CBS Sports. This will take the number of lawsuits against the Cleveland Browns quarterback up to 26, putting his NFL future in jeopardy.

NFL fans took to social media to share their thoughts on the lawsuits against the Browns quarterback.

One Browns fan said that the NFL could void his recent trade to Cleveland:

A New York Jets fan said that the quarterback shouldn't be allowed to play another game in the NFL:

A Dolphins fan chimed in, saying that they were glad that Miami did not trade for the quarterback last year.

One Atlanta Falcons fan emphasized the guaranteed money that Cleveland gave the former Houston Texans quarterback:

One fan hit out at claims that Watson was being set up.

"Folks saying Watson is being set-up should realize that he set himself up as he scheduled 66 confirmed massages with strangers (allegedly 100+) via Instagram. $100 mil contract but uses Insta for massages “Dense Smoke” likely leads to fire……."

One Dolphins fan asserted that if the team traded for the quarterback and gave him all of the money the Browns did, he wouldn't be a fan of the team anymore:

Houston attorney Tony Buzbee, who's representing the 24 women suing the quarterback over claims of sexual misconduct, told CBS Sports that his law firm will likely file a 25th lawsuit “in due course.” The lawsuit was referred by an attorney out of Atlanta.

The firm has also been contacted by a woman who says she watched an episode of the HBO show Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel and “was compelled to come forward.”

This would be the 26th lawsuit against the 26-year-old, who has maintained his innocence throughout. The story was first reported by the news station KPRC 2 out of Houston.
