Deshaun Watson received an 11-game suspension and a $5 million fine Thursday after the NFL and its players union reached a settlement for the Browns quarterback regarding the 24 lawsuits he faced involving sexual harassment and sexual assault.

Ahead of the decision, it was reported that 23 of the 24 lawsuits were agreed upon to be settled. The one remaining unsettled lawsuit involves former massage therapist Lauren Baxley, who opened up about why she hasn’t settled with Watson in an article posted by The Daily Beast early Friday morning.
