Deshaun Watson 26th Lawsuit, Dan Snyder’s "Dirt", & STL Rams' Indemnification Woes

Welcome back to the intersection of sports and the law. The Dans break down all the latest in the sports law world. A new civil lawsuit has been filed against Deshaun Watson for sexual assault. (1:55) Watson's settlement was an all-encompassing settlement between the NFLPA and the NFL in which it stated that any future lawsuits would not result in punishment or investigation from the NFL. Now that a new suit has been filed, that language is being highlighted. There may be a number of new suits filed against Watson, which will have to solely play out in the court system. Dan Snyder has "dirt" on other NFL owners. (15:25) Snyder made a statement that he was effectively invincible because he has too much "dirt" on other NFL owners to be removed as an owner. It is reported that Snyder is paying attorneys to continually research other NFL owners to "dig up dirt" as a form of protection or defense for his removal. Snyder is well beyond the "Conduct Detrimental" line now. St. Louis Rams Relocation Lawsuit is back in the news. (36:40) The language used in the settlement agreement was ambiguous and failed to define certain terms. Specifically, the language used in the indemnification agreement where the owners were not to be liable for attorney’s fees and did not mention any liability to damages. *** Have a topic you want to write about?
