Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson left Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals with an Achilles injury.

Watson planted his right leg in the first half as he started to scramble and immediately crumpled to the turf in pain.

Athletic trainers tended to Watson on the field as backup quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson warmed up. Watson eventually left the field on a cart.

Watson covered his face with a towel in tears as he was carted off the field. The Browns eventually ruled Watson out with an Achilles injury.

"May"? In what world does someone injure their Achilles in that manner and come back during the season?

Which means he might just be done, if he's out for the season can't see him getting the job back with the Browns and they're going to want to find a way to get clear of that contract as soon as they can.

 

Question is does somewhere else take him.....I mean Adam Gase got hired as a head coach immediately after getting fired by the Dolphins so it's hard to just say no. But you'd think that no team wants the headache that comes with him for a guy that doesn't seem to have it anymore.

Has to be a torn Achilles. Honestly, probably the best for all parties. Watson doesn't want to be playing and the Browns are better off benching him. Winston will start winning games for them.

While I hate seeing anyone get injured, this couldn’t have happened to a more outstanding individual. Hope he never plays again

Browns are seemingly stuck with him for 2025 and 2026 no matter what.

 

If cut before 2025 season:

 

172 million dead cap

72 million dead cap in 2025 and 100 million in 2026 if post June 1 designation 

 

Something like 46 million per if on team in 25 and 26 due to restructure that added void years

 

Regardless, he's going to be on their roster for 25 and 26 because of those void years. They literally cannot afford to trade or cut him
