- Watson pleaded not guilty in Cleveland municipal court, with a bench trial scheduled for September 23, which coincides with a team workday.
- The speeding citation followed a difficult preseason moment for Watson, including boos from fans and a press conference where he expressed doubts about playing effectively at home.
