Embattled quarterback Deshaun Watson served an 11-game suspension last season and paid a $5 million fine, but his legal woes are not behind him.

Watson, who signed a record-setting five-year, $230 million fully-guaranteed contract last offseason with the Cleveland Browns, is expected to return to a Houston courtroom next week. The deal represented the highest guaranteed money an NFL player has ever received, which has had a ripple effect across the league.

Watson reached out-of-court settlements with 24 out of 25 of his accusers for undisclosed amounts.
