Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson is to be suspended for six games for violating the National Football League’s (NFL) personal-conduct policy.

Many women came forward last year and filed lawsuits against Watson, accusing him of sexual assault and inappropriate conduct.

In March, Watson denied sexually assaulting or acting in an inappropriate manner towards any of the 22 women who had made complaints against him at the time.

A Texas grand jury declined to indict Watson.

The NFL Players Association (NFLPA) said on Sunday that it would not appeal Robinson’s ruling, although the league still has the right to appeal.
