HOUSTON – After lawyer Tony Buzbee said in an Instagram post that he filed a complaint against Deshaun Watson, the Texan neighborhood posted a message on social media saying he was eager to delete his name.
Watson responded to the news on Twitter about the lawsuit, saying he rejected “a six-digit solution to an unfounded lawsuit” and that “this is about clearing my name and I look forward to receiving it.”
Buzbee did not specify the allegations against Watson in his post, but referred to the behavior with a woman and later told Fox 26 in Houston that “Watson went too far,” with a woman who texted him.
“I have never treated a woman with anything other than the utmost respect,” Watson said in his post.
Buzbee is well known in the Houston area for his law firm and for a failed campaign against Mayor Sylvester Turner in 2019.
