It likely ruins Deshaun's trade demand or at least diminishes his destinations from what he wants, to whatever team will take the PR on in the trade which I'm sure their will still be suitors. We need to understand severity when dealing with these cases, if you're a masseuse, and you see people naked all the time, or at least naked under a sheet, don't be surprised when you see a penis, when one grazes your arm or hand, and as a woman in this world you shouldn't think a forced kiss would net you millions of dollars in "damages". Do women deserve to be taken seriously? Yes. Do they deserve millions of dollars for allegations that these specific women are saying? No. Get what you can take ladies, congrats on the score and I hope you can heal from the trauma. The media will tell you you're doing the right thing, I will say you're using your gender, sexuality and a hyper-sensitive time in our culture, to get as much as you can from something that you and I both know isn't that big of a deal. Deshaun Watson is a far cry from Bill Cosby and Harvey Weinstein, we joke about it, but Deshaun's not laughing, he's just the latest to get caught.

Alleged to have forced one of them into oral. Not exactly an accidental graze of the hand.
