A masseuse filed a civil lawsuit, which was just the beginning, serving as a signal that stirred up a hornet's nest, giving others the courage to step forward.
Gradually, more and more masseuses came forward, and various signs indicated that it wasn't an isolated case, but rather Watson was a habitual offender!
Watson faced twenty-two civil lawsuits.
The situation took a sudden turn for the worse; now it wasn't Watson applying to leave the Houston Texans, but rather whether the Houston Texans were willing to keep Watson.
But the problem is that timing is everything.
Now, the Houston Texans finally are willing to trade Watson. They have already lost Hopkins and Watt, two star figures; if the team continues to use Watson as its cornerstone quarterback, it might not be beneficial for the team's market promotion, as the team's image cannot continue to be tarnished — Watson needs to leave.
