Cowboys Release Longtime Punter Chris Jones + Eagles trying to get Deshaun Watson...

FRISCO, Texas – The Cowboys have released long-time punter Chris Jones, creating salary cap space as free agency officially begins Wednesday. Jones' release makes 2020 newcomer Hunter Niswander the only punter on the current roster, though it's always possible the Cowboys could bring in another punter before training camp. Jones has a career 44.5-yard average, though the last two seasons (42.6 in 2020, 41.6 in 2019) were his two lowest averages since becoming the Cowboys' full-time punter in 2013. He spent the final eight games of 2020 on injured reserve following abdominal surgery. Niswander averaged 47.2 yards in the final eight games, tying for ninth-best in the league. Jones signed a four-year extension in 2017 worth nearly $9 million. He had one year left on his deal at a $2 million base salary. Last week, the Cowboys created roughly $17 million additional salary cap space by restructuring the contracts of starting offensive linemen Tyron Smith, Zack Martin and La'el Collins. Deshaun Watson HOUSTON -- Two civil lawsuits have been filed against Deshaun Watson alleging inappropriate conduct during massages, on two separate occasions by two separate plaintiffs. The first lawsuit, which was filed Tuesday night and appeared on the Harris County district clerk's website on Wednesday morning, alleges inappropriate conduct in a massage therapist's home in Houston in March 2020. The incident the second lawsuit is based on, filed on Wednesday, occurred on August 28, 2020. The lawsuits, which were filed by Houston lawyer Tony Buzbee, both allege that Watson "committed civil assault" when touching a massage therapist with his penis and that he "intentionally or knowingly caused physical contact with Plaintiff when Watson knew, or should have reasonably known, that Plaintiff would regard such contact as offensive." The second lawsuit says, "Watson's behavior is part of a disturbing pattern of preying on vulnerable women." Buzbee said on Instagram that there are now four total cases against Watson, although only two lawsuits have been filed so far. Watson responded on Twitter to the first lawsuit on Tuesday night, saying that he rejected "a baseless six-figure settlement demand" and that this is "about clearing my name, and I look forward to doing that." At the time of his statement, Watson said he had not seen the first lawsuit.
