Wasn't he suspended all of last year as well though?
Nope just didn't want to play for the Texans. At least that is what I read. I didn't confirm that though.
I doubt the league would have let him play last year, but perhaps they had to until a ruling was made. So Watson voluntarily gave up a year of salary? Guess it didn't really hurt him given his new contract.

Deshaun gets 6 game suspension costing him $300k. For reference Trevor Bauer got 2 years costing him $60M. So much for white privilege.
You ever watch the Trevor Bauer vids? he and Eric Sim go around and play against youts - there's a vid somewhere of "four adults vs a high school team" and it's awesome and hilarious. The best part - is the camera behind the mound shows off the insane movement on his pitches. That curveball moves two feet. These vids are really fun. Dude has nasty stuff. This one is against Canadian "All Stars". Bauer to the batter "Which pitch do you want to strike out on?" :lol: :lol:

Pretty sure he didn't give up any salary. He sat out as injury protection so Houston could trade him. No one voluntarily gives up thier salary - and if Houston was refusing to pay him - then the Player's Union starts making noise. He got paid last year.

As I understood it the Texans were not interested in playing him last season, they paid him

so sexually assaulting 30+ women gets you the same suspension as Jarran Reed got for throwing a drunk woman out of his house. Fucking NFL bullshit.

I hope Watson gets sacked in his first game back and Ndamukong Suh stomps on his dick.

no, Jarran Reed had some drunk woman going crazy in his house, so he dragged her down the stairs to throw her out or something to that effect. She got some bruises from it, so they called it DV, but he was never charged, no complaints filed, and he got six freaking games. I'm still bitter about it, if you can't tell.

So your aunt is a crazy drunk bitch? Surprising, since your Mom was so nice to me ;)
