Watson has been permitted to participate, as normal with all football events for the past 15 months.


Going into the Madden 23 Beta, I expected that only one or two teams could be played .


The behavior around Watson isn't normal. This is not  Madden 23 coins how investigations have been conducted previously. Calvin Ridley was suspended for the entire season for betting $1.500 during a 4 month period. The league's investigation into domestic violence allegations on Greg Hardy lasted two months in 2015. The Ray Rice scandal lasted seven months.

Three major Madden NFL 23 investigations combined took less time than has been devoted to Watson. It's like the league wants to drag this out for as long as they can so Watson is able to take the field for Cleveland this fall, and nothing makes sense. Rice was suspended indefinitely, to allow the league's investigation. Hardy was placed on the commissioner's list of exempted players, yet again, in anticipation of an investigation.

There's never been more extensive in-depth allegations of sexual assault against a person. More than twenty women have come forward and accused Watson of sexual assault or harassment. It's unclear how players like Rice and Hardy have been suspended pending an investigation but the only penalty Watson has faced is being pressured to shut down Watson's Twitter page.

Inside Madden NFL 23 documents clearly indicate that players under investigation by Madden NFL 23 will be placed on the commissioner's exempt lists pending the completion of the investigation -- which Watson never was.

If that was the case, then the exempt list should have been activated. Again, from the Madden NFL 23's own policies:
