In January, Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson tore his Achilles for the second time in 12 weeks, leaving his playing status for 2025 looking bleak. The former first-rounder could miss the entire 2025 season, but the team says right now, nothing is definite either way.

The Browns have acknowledged that the decision to trade for quarterback Deshaun Watson was a big miss, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's done playing in Cleveland.

The Cleveland Browns, from the voice of general manager Andrew Berry, have provided clarity on the future of Deshaun Watson, who will need to recover and in the meantime see how Joe Flacco adapts to the team as quarterback for the 2025 NFL season.

Earlier this week, No. 1 NFL Draft Prospect Travis Hunter made a bold claim, telling reporters that he would never play football again if the team that drafted him did not let him play both sides of the ball.

The Cleveland Browns hold the No. 2 pick in the NFL Draft and are keeping all options on the table — including the possibility of selecting Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders. It was once widely expected that the quarterback-needy Browns would target a passer with their top pick.
