If that reports true I'm going to have to flip a coin to decide between abandoning them until the whole front office crew is gone and Cal is dead or following them like a hawk to see just exactly how bad it can get

you literally have that backwards

if the suits go away he will not be suspended

the league has already said they don't have enough evidence to do anything, and if everything is settled all that evidence disappears forever

the only way he gets suspended is if one of those cases goes to trial and something juicy comes out, or he faces criminal charges

Yeah, the NFL doesn't have enough evidence. Like, only something like 22 highly specific massage therapists all reported being sexually assaulted.

Shame there's hardly any evidence.

I'd say do both, starting immediately. Enjoy some schadenfreude whenever the Texans execs embarrass themselves.

Start rooting for whichever team(s) appeal(s) to you & get some pure pleasure from football fandom. You got 8 divisional threads here for instant camaraderie and discussion. Create your Sunday Funday.

So to recap

Texans still stuck paying a QB for not playing and getting nothing for it
Texans fans still stuck knowing he's there
Dolphins still stuck without a QB
Dolfans get 1048590191309130101931th confirmation the team doesn't want Tua
Tua fans get 1048590191309130101931th confirmation the team doesn't want Tua, and now the third confirmation the owner himself wants to move on (and now the fourth confirmation they've tried and Nobody Wants Him)

Which itself was a rumor "leaked" to Mike Florio and almost surely a made up story.

But who did the leak? Was it Deshaun Watson's agent? Was it a rogue faction in the Dolphins front office? Jack Easterby? Roger Goodell? Someone with the Patriots? Pole Assassin's monkey?

Dolphins: Yes, Deshaun. We're a bit uncomfortable with 22 sexual assault lawsuits. It kind of makes you look like a piece of poo poo. Do you think you could settle those down to say... 15? We could deal with that.

It’s amazing that Stephen Ross apparently has a tolerance for a whole bunch of sexual assault as long as it’s not more than say 20. That’s just too much.

Odd a civil attorney would be discussing potential negotiations like this as well as openly disclose 3rd party investigations.

But Miami can only blame themselves for not immediately shutting down the Watson poo poo and letting Texas beat writers do their thing

It's pretty great for a civil attorney who wants a settlement to be able to demonstrate tens of millions of dollars depend on his clients getting paid.

Excuse me but I read pretty clearly a quote by Mr. Buzbee himself that this has nothing to do with money.

My point being it's odd they'd infer that it was Miami who was speaking with the victims.

It’s Texas. If he doesn’t say gonna and ain’t and y’all people will just assume he’s a carpetbagger.

Speaking in local dialect is fine. It’s not a legal brief it’s a verbal exchange.

I read this as the Dolphins asking Buzbee if there's any chance the 22 lawsuits could be settled so that they could trade for the sexual assaulter in good conscious.

Buzbee says it ain't happening. Ross counters with a number of sexual assaults settlements lower than 22 but still palatable to himself/Dolphins with which they would consummate the trade. Buzbee again says not happening. Dolphins back away.
