Cleveland Browns owner Jimmy Haslam may regret the Deshaun Watson trade, but with the veteran quarterback progressing well from his injury, he may have to make a hard decision about who to play this year. Still under contract for the next two years, Watson’s play alone hasn’t justified his starting status. He is returning from an Achilles injury he tore and then aggravated, most anticipating he would not play in 2025.
Watson never anticipated that, however, and indeed made a video about it. He insisted that he will return “way better than before”, even if the Browns want him to go away.
