What happened to Deshaun Watson? Injury update, return date for Browns QB
The Cleveland Browns go through quarterbacks like people go through water.
Unfortunately for the Ohio-based team, no one is turning the faucet off. Their search for stability at the most important position in sports has spanned decades and continues to this day. They've tried everything from first overall picks to free agent signings and trades.
Joe Flacco now heads to the bench ahead of Week 5, allowing Dillon Gabriel to make his first career start. Fellow rookie Shedeur Sanders acted like a mime as his press conference earlier in the week, but there's another quarterback that has seemingly flown under the radar this season.
Cleveland Browns provide Deshaun Watson update ahead of clash against rival
The controversial quarterback was placed on the PUP list heading into the 2025-26 season, with a chance for him to be activated ahead of the trade deadline.
Announced ahead of the Cleveland Browns' matchup against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers, news broke that Watson would not begin practicing just yet. He will remain on the PUP list as he rehabs, but it is looking more likely that he will be activated soon.
"Deshaun's doing a great job with his rehab and that's really where his focus is," head coach Kevin Stefanski said in late September.
Browns won’t be opening practice window for Deshaun Watson this week. He remains on PUP as he rehabs from twice ruptured Achilles tendon.

Browns rumors: Shedeur Sanders, Deshaun Watson expectations in 2025
Browns reportedly making sure Shedeur Sanders is ready to succeed, Deshaun Watson playing this season?
The Cleveland Browns head into Week 5 of the 2025 NFL season already starting their second quarterback of the year, Dillon Gabriel, in place of Joe Flacco, but those two quarterbacks are not the biggest names on the team. As the Browns prepare to play the Minnesota Vikings early Sunday morning, a rumor report came out Saturday night about what to expect from Shedeur Sanders and Deshaun Watson this season.
Sanders excited the football world in college, but fell from many expecting him to be selected in the first round to being taken by Cleveland in the fifth round. Watson tore his Achilles tendon twice last season, but is reportedly on track to be physically ready to play sometime in the middle of the 2025 season.
