Buzbee said that witness spent much of the deposition asserting her Fifth Amendment privilege.

“Although we respect a witness’s right to avoid self-incrimination, it is frustrating to me and my clients that we are unable to get answers to key questions regarding: What was known about Watson and his conduct; who other than Watson was arranging the multitude of massages he was receiving, sometime twice daily; who received reports regarding his conduct; and what the Texans organization’s role was in arranging massages for Watson, and what the Texans knew about those sessions,” Buzbee said in a news release.

You can hear KPRC 2 legal analyst Brian Wice’s analysis of the update when he joins Randy McIlvoy tomorrow night on Sports Sunday at 10:30 p.m.

Deshaun Watson’s deposition is scheduled to begin in late February.
