The Cleveland Browns thought trading for Deshaun Watson was going to change the tragectory of the franchise. Instead, it's been the same old problem that's been plaguing the Browns for nearly three decades. Watson hasn't performed up to expectations for Cleveland and tore his Achilles this season. Back-up Jameis Winston became the starter for the rest of the year and looked to be a better fit for the Browns' offense than Watson. The Browns made it clear that they were going to stick with Watson in 2025 until recent reports announced that Watson re-tore his Achilles during the recovery process. They now find themselves in the same position for the millionth time—in need of a quarterback. Luckily for them, they hold the number two overall pick in the draft.
