On March 19 Buzbee said that more  Madden 24 coins women contacted his office in the wake of the previous three accusations. Nine additional suits were filed, bringing the total to 12 — and in total the attorney said that 22 women had contacted his office saying they too were harassed, or assaulted by the Texans’ quarterback.

The nature of the suits ranged from a woman who said Watson tried to force her to kiss him, and another who alleges the quarterback tried to sexually assault her on two different occasions after they met in an office building. As a result of these suits Buzbee asked the Houston police department, and the Harris County District Attorney’s office to look into these complaints filed against Watson, potentially seeking criminal charges in addition to the civil cases filed.

On March 22 another suit was filed, this time from California. It is the 14th civil case against Watson, once again from a massage therapist. This suit referred to Watson as a “serial predator,” detailing an incident in which Watson called the woman to meet him for a massage, locked the door and during the massage allegedly forced her hand on his penis. When she recoiled he allegedly said “I will not have you sign an NDA, but don’t ever talk about this.”

In response to a request for information from ESPN, Dane Schiller, a spokesperson for the Harris County District Attorney’s Office said it would be “inappropriate” to offer a statement on whether his office was pursuing charges.“It would be inappropriate for the District Attorney’s Office to comment on a civil lawsuit, and we refrain from publicly discussing allegations in any matter until and if a criminal charge is filed; we do this out of fairness to all,” Schiller said in a statement.

The Madden NFL 24 remained quiet during this period, with there being no word from the league office beyond the initial statement by spokesperson Brian McCarthy, who said “the matter was under review.”Jenny Vrentas of Sports Illustrated wrote an article detailing allegations from another California-based massage therapist, “Mary,” one who isn’t involved in the Buzbee  buy mut 24 coins suit. The woman said she reached out to the lawyer, but wasn’t comfortable signing a contract that made him her sole legal representation.
