Hardin said the allegations against his client are “meritless.” He added, “However, we will wait to comment in detail until we’ve completed our review of the numerous, evolving allegations from Mr. Buzbee. We will respond next week and ask you to keep an open mind until we do so.”

On Tuesday, Deshaun Watson tweeted that he became aware of the sexual assault allegations against him through a social media post by a “publicity-seeking plaintiff’s lawyer.”

The Houston Texans quarterback added that he hadn’t seen the lawsuit and denied the accusations against him. He wrote, “I have never treated any woman with anything other than the utmost respect.”

Deshaun Watson added that he “quickly rejected” Buzbee’s “baseless six-figure settlement demand” before filing the lawsuit.

Furthermore, he wrote, “Unlike him, this isn’t about money for me- it’s about clearing my name, and I look forward to doing that.”
