Watson Joins Browns

Apologies for the poor transcription, I was listening on my ride to work early this morning.

In other words, there is no information, just base speculation.

Also, I know it's kinda unbelievable, but Jack Easterby and the Owner are so clueless and useless, that it is highly likely that the team really DIDN'T know what was going on.  Yes Easterby gave DW a blank NDA, but apparently those are intended for use in multiple non-sexual situations.  All indications locally here in Houston from the media is that Houston was caught off guard by this.  Their settlements clearly come with an NDA and a lack of culpability.

Maybe it's splitting hairs, but considering what I know if the idiots running the Texans, I really doubt they knowingly supported DW's sex games.  

Maybe that doesn't matter.  *shrugs*
