Deshaun Watson is trying to block out his past, but can he win over Cleveland? Dive into the Browns' drama-packed training camp!
Deshaun Watson, the Cleveland Browns' quarterback, is entangled in a web of controversies both on and off the field, and he's not doing himself any favors by playing the victim card. Although Cleveland hasn't fully embraced Watson, his performance has also left much to be desired. Why then does he continue to speak as if he's been wronged?
Entering the third year of his five-year, $46 million-per-year, fully guaranteed contract, the Browns are biding their time, hoping to see some return on their hefty investment. GM Andrew Berry is optimistic, stating that Watson will have a 'big year' if he can stay available. Training camps have only just begun, but the stakes are already high.
During a recent press conference, Watson remarked that he is focused on blocking out the distractions of the last two years. Unfortunately, considering his off-field issues, the irony of his statement was not lost on many. Coach's optimism notwithstanding, Watson's actions are still under scrutiny as Cleveland waits with bated breath to see if he can, indeed, deliver.
Meanwhile, Watson seems to soldier on, ending practice early on the fourth day of the training camp, much to the curiosity of fans and commentators alike. While his smooth recovery from shoulder surgery is promising, his erratic behavior on the field raises more questions than it answers. From skipping practices to needing extra time to show his skillset, Watson is under a microscope.
In an interesting twist, despite his rocky journey, Deshaun Watson is expected to throw in pads as early as Monday. Will this be the turning point for Watson and a chance to showcase the talent that earned him a massive contract in the first place? Only time will tell. As of now, all eyes remain on Cleveland's controversial quarterback.
Here's an intriguing tidbit: Did you know that if Deshaun Watson's contract were to be divided equally among Clevelandโs population, every resident would receive about $147? That's enough for a decent night out in the city! Another fun fact: Watson's alma mater, Clemson University, recently named a campus building after him, making it a point of pilgrimage for die-hard fans. Whether these facts change your perspective or not, there's no denying Watson's impact on both his current team and his college roots.
Cleveland hasn't really embraced Watson and he has struggled on the field, but why is he still speaking like someone who has been wronged?
