CBS spared no punches where Deshaun Watson was concerned during the Cleveland Browns’ Week 2 fixture against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday.
The Browns quarterback is in the spotlight again following a new lawsuit, with one Jane Doe making accusations of sexual assault against Watson stemming from an alleged 2020 incident. Watson has denied the allegations through his attorney, but the noise won’t go away anytime soon.
The 29-year-old was in action for Cleveland this Sunday, having gotten blown out by the Dallas Cowboys last weekend. The Browns held a one-touchdown lead over the Jags early in the fourth quarter at the time of writing.
CBS displayed a graphic outlining the newest lawsuit during the game, which has since surfaced on social media.

Fans Had All Sorts Of Things To Say After Coming Across This Deshaun Watson Graphic
The comments were unkind after the photo above popped up online.
“As a browns fan I was not happy seeing this lol,” a Cleveland fan admitted.
“when your Wikipedia entry has a “legal issues” section that’s longer than “early life and college”,” another user joked.
“Even worse when a team trades for him after the fact and gives him the biggest contract in history at the time. Browns are the Browns,” a comment read.
“This all feels like a “Browns released this to get rid of Deshaun” deployment of info. All broke right after he sucked last week,” someone surmised.
Deshaun Watson hadn’t passed for any TDs up to the point of writing, having thrown for 179 yards on 17 of 26 passing.
We imagine everyone affiliated with the Browns could use a win after this rocky start to the season.
