Browns GM refuses to commit to Deshaun Watson as team’s long-term QB

• Quarterback suffered season-ending injury last month
• Watson's tenure in Cleveland has been rocky

The only certainty about Deshaun Watson's future with the Browns is that they owe him $92m over the next two years. Everything else about the quarterback is up in the air.

At a news conference on Wednesday, Browns general manager Andrew Berry was mostly noncommittal about Watson, saying he hasn't ruled out the divisive QB coming back to play for Cleveland in 2025 despite another significant injury, three disappointing seasons and a split fanbase.

Watson is recovering from a season-ending ruptured achilles tendon sustained last month. That, along with Watson being among the lowest-rated quarterbacks in the NFL this season, has led to speculation about how - or if - he fits in with the Browns, who made a franchise-altering trade to acquire him in 2022.
