Massage therapist contradicts Deshaun Watson's claims he contacted her over Instagram only
ESPN investigation includes interviews with six women who allege sexual misconduct by Watson
Quarterback claims he only contacted massage therapists via social media because his usual masseuse was unavailable
In an upcoming news article, ESPN will detail the findings of an investigation into lawsuits filed against Deshaun Watson and interviews with six others who were hired to massage the Houston Texans quarterback.
Watson has insisted that the only reason he contacted massage therapists over social media is because his usual masseuse was unavailable. However, one of the women who spoke to ESPN, massage therapist Nia Lewis, contradicts this claim.
According to the lawsuit filed by Lewis, Watson allegedly contacted her on Instagram on November 9, 2020, and asked her if she was a licensed massage therapist. Lewis told Watson that she was not, but he allegedly continued to pressure her to massage him.
Lewis's account is just one of many that ESPN has gathered in its investigation. The article, which is set to be published in the coming days, is expected to shed new light on Watson's conduct with massage therapists.
