Although Deshaun Watson won’t play in a regular-season game until December, the Browns’ owners stand by the decision to trade for the quarterback—and would do it again.

The franchise’s dubbed “QB1” will be suspended 11 games and dealt a $5 million fine after the NFL and players association reached a settlement agreement concerning his disciplinary process.
