The Browns defense will have to step up again to beat the Seahawks. His starting quarterback Deshaun Watson is again on the flank.
Signing a fully guaranteed contract does not mean avoiding injuries. And Deshaun Watson is learning it the hard way.
And for good reason, his trainer Kévin Stefanski announced this Wednesday via The Athletic. The Browns quarterback is out for this Sunday’s game against the Seahawks. This time, the cause is a shoulder injury, contracted during the game against the Colts.
PJ Walker will replace him as starter. Already starting against the 49ers, he threw 2 interceptions. That didn’t stop Cleveland from winning. Entering the game against the Colts last week, he threw an interception. For the same result.
Since arriving in Cleveland, Deshaun Watson has already missed 15 games. 11 last season, and already 4 this season. Since the start of the season, he has posted a 62% pass completion rate. For 5 touchdowns and 3 interceptions.
