It's unclear exactly when this meeting will take place, but the victims, Deshaun Watson, the Browns, and the fanbase await the potential punishment. As of now, Cleveland will be monitoring the situation, as the decision dictates what the team will do with the quarterback position.
League process usually involves meeting with the accused only at the conclusion of investigations like this.

After spending a year on the sidelines with the Houston Texans, Deshaun Watson finally got his wish and was traded to the Browns. Once he arrived in Cleveland, the front office gave Watson a controversial contract, giving him a ton of money for multiple years. We'll see how it all plays out, but this franchise is cleaerly hopeful that their newly acquired superstar quarterback will be available in the 2022 season.
Keep a close eye on Deshaun Watson and the Browns. The NFL is likely to reveal their decision in the coming days.
