Deshaun Watson and NFL agree deal on 11 game suspension and $5m fine

It is the largest ever fine handed out to a player by the league

Deshaun Watson and the NFL have agreed on a deal that will see the quarterback suspended for 11 games and fined $5m over sexual misconduct allegations made against him.

It is reportedly the largest fine ever handed out to an NFL player.

The Cleveland Browns star had earlier been handed a six-game suspension by an independent arbiter for violating the league’s personal conduct policy.
