What impact do the decisions made by the NFL in the Deshaun Watson case mean for prominent highly paid athletes and celebrities moving forward, and what does fan response say about cultural tolerance and ethics? Join Professors Brandt and Rhodes as they unpack this case and consider the intersection of professional sports and sexual exploitation more broadly.
