"This press conference will address important and significant developments in the Deshaun Watson case. We will take a few questions, but only from those present, and we will also distribute information to those assembled," he wrote along with picture of his law firm on Facebook.
Buzbee’s update came days after the Houston police revealed there was a complaint filed against the Houston Texans quarterback.
"Today, a complainant filed a report with the Houston Police Department concerning Deshaun Watson," the Houston Police Department said in a statement Friday. "As with any allegation, the Houston Police Department is now conducting an investigation and will not comment further during the investigative process."
