About this episode

The Browns are considering a contract extension for Deshaun Watson despite his poor performance and injury history.

The Browns are surprising fans by considering a contract extension for Deshaun Watson beyond 2026, despite his injury-riddled tenure and underwhelming stats. With a torn Achilles sidelining him in 2025 and poor metrics in 2024 — including a top-5 pressure-to-sack rate and bottom-half rankings in key stats — Watson’s future looked bleak. But GM Andrew Berry is open to giving him another shot, citing Geno Smith and Daniel Jones as proof that QBs can rebound and land big deals. With a new OC in Todd Monken and Watson turning 31, the Browns may be betting on a turnaround — even as they face tough decisions with the draft and trade options looming.
