The 26-year-old has maintained his innocence ever since the first of 24 cases was filed against him. His initial lack of remorse was considered an "aggravating factor" in him being handed a six-game suspension.

Here's what Watson said in his apology:

"I want to say that I'm truly sorry to all of the women that I have impacted in this situation. The decisions that I made in my life that put me in this position I would definitely like to have back, but I want to continue to move forward and grow and learn and show that I am a true person of character and I am going to keep pushing forward."

Watson was first accused of sexual misconduct in March 2021. He has since reached confidential settlements with 23 of the 24 women who filed civil lawsuits against him. The 26-year-old has previously denied any illegal behavior and asserted that all activities were consensual.

His six-game suspension has been appealed by the NFL and the quarterback is expected to miss the entire 2022 season. It will be interesting to see what the final decision is for Deshaun Watson.
