Deshaun Watson decides to play for Cleveland Browns, who offered most guaranteed money in NFL history

Deshaun Watson has decided to play for the Cleveland Browns and will waive his no-trade clause to get a deal done, a league source confirmed to Yahoo Sports.

The compensation will include three first-round draft picks and two additional picks.

The Browns will give Watson a deal for five years and $230 million fully guaranteed, the highest guaranteed money sum in NFL history.

Watson himself confirmed his decision on Instagram. NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy issued a statement saying the league's investigation into Watson is still ongoing.
