Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston has settled a federal lawsuit filed by a woman who accused him of sexually assaulting her in 2012 while he played at Florida State, according to the womans attorney.Former Florida State student Erica Kinsman accused Winston, the 2013 Heisman Trophy winner, of sexually assaulting her at his apartment in December 2012. He was never charged with a crime by police in Tallahassee, Florida, and the state attorneys office there declined to pursue a criminal case against him.The case has been resolved to the satisfaction of the parties, John Clune, the womans attorney, told ESPN on Wednesday night.The settlement was first reported by TMZ Sports.Clune declined to discuss the specifics of the settlement. Winston, in his second season with the Buccaneers,?had filed a countersuit against Kinsman. Donald King, who is one of the attorneys representing Winston, told The Associated Press that also has been settled.Kinsmans lawsuit was scheduled to go to trial in U.S. District Court in Orlando, Florida, on April 3.Kinsman sued Winston in April 2015, accusing him of sexual battery, assault, false imprisonment and intentional infliction of emotional distress. According to the lawsuit, Winstons conduct was extreme and outrageous and caused plaintiff to suffer severe mental anguish and suffering, including, more specifically, loss of sleep, flashbacks, severe anxiety, fear of repeat sexual violence, an unfounded sense of shame and depression, all of which will continue to require psychological and other counseling.Winston filed a countersuit against Kinsman a month later, alleging that her accusations were false, defamatory ... and have maliciously and impermissibly interfered with Mr. Winstons business and personal relationships. The suit claimed Kinsmans accusations subjected Winston to an almost inconceivable amount of media attention and led to the loss of significant endorsement deals.Florida State agreed to pay Kinsman $950,000 in January to settle a lawsuit she filed against the school for its handling of her Title IX complaint. As part of the settlement, Florida State agreed to commit to five years of sexual assault awareness programs and to publishing annual reports of those programs. Florida State did not admit liability as part of its settlement.At the time of Florida States settlement, university president John Thrasher said the school had determined that avoiding a trial was a financially responsible decision, instead of paying millions of dollars in legal fees, even though we are convinced we would have prevailed.After leading Florida State to a national championship in 2013, Winston was the No. 1 pick in the 2015 NFL draft by the Buccaneers. He signed a four-year, $23.35 million contract with the team less than 24 hours after he was selected. According to reports, more than $16 million of the contract was guaranteed.Former Florida Supreme Court Chief Justice Major Harding ruled in December 2014 that evidence was insufficient to find Winston responsible for four violations of Florida States student conduct code.Information from The Associated Press contributed to this report Toronto Blue Jays Pro Shop .

Blue Jays Jerseys 2020 . -- In one brief spurt, Brazil turned a close game into a rout and proved again it will be a strong World Cup favourite. Greater Western Sydney coach Leon Cameron predicts injury-plagued forward Jon Pattons best is yet to come after an uncommonly slow path to his 50th AFL game.Patton will attain the milestone on Saturday against Gold Coast, but two knee reconstructions and a patella tendon injury have stalled his passage to the landmark.It has taken the 2011 No.1 draft pick almost five seasons and he has played in under half of the Giants first 106 games.It has been a long journey for him, Cameron said.Hes started to create a bit more consistency in his game of footy after being out for so long.Talls naturally take a little bit longer than most players, but hes had a number of setbacks the last four and a half, five years.But his persistence; I reckoned hes learnt a lot about going through a rehab program and what footy means to him.Does he want to go the extra yard? Can he push himself through to actually get to the ultimate and thats playing AFL footy let alone playing 50 games, so its a fine achievement from Jon.We look forward to seeing him progress week after week and hes an integral part of the lineup right now and he knows that every week he rolls out, hes thankful that he can play footy again.Id say the best is yet to come, I absolutely think so.Hes only five yearss in, really hes probably only two years in because of the injuries hes sustained.ddddddddddddBut I think hes really starting to grasp what AFL footy is about week in week out and rocking up to play, so hes got a lot of work to do still, but were definitely happy that hes on the right track.Patton is currently riding a career-best streak of 17 consecutive games.He has kicked 19 goals this season, putting him in joint fifth position at the club in that category.Cameron values Pattonss versatility.He can go down and play key back and also a little bit on the weekend he played in the ruck as well, Cameron said.He has also paid tribute to the increasing toughness of ruckman-forward Rory Lobb, who is enjoying a breakout season.Lobb is working hard to overcome a knee injury and play this weekend.He was just a stick figure when he first arrived, Cameron said of Lobb.Hes worked extremely hard to put on some weight and some muscle.But his hardness through the last 18 months has actually gone through the roof.Hes only a third-year player and sometimes weve got to pinch ourselves to say his development has probably exceeded expectations.
