Deshaun Watson QB, Cleveland Browns

ProFootballTalk reports that Deshaun Watson will be suspended for 11 games with a $5 million fine.

A copy of an agreement between the NFL and NFLPA surfaced on Twitter, which a ProFootballTalk source indicated is real. The ruling indicates that Watson's 11-game suspension will begin after final roster cutdown. He will be eligible for reinstatement on November 28. The settlement directs Watson's $5 million fine, along with $1 million each from the Browns and the NFL, into a fund to "support the work of non-profit organizations across the country." While the prospect of seeing Watson on the field in 2022 remains jarring, the NFL's goal of an indefinite suspension took a hit when Judge Suan Robinson issued a ruling of a six-game suspension. Watson will be eligible to return in Week 13 when, unbelievably, the Browns travel to Houston to play the Texans.

Loved watching Inside the NFL with him and Nick Buoniconti. Back when there wasn't 24/7 coverage everywhere you looked, Inside the NFL was the best place to get a good weekly look at all the games from the week.

They only raped one girl. At most it should be a two game suspension. (Sarcasm)
