DESHAUN WATSON
-
He's coming off a shoulder injury and will shortly just now start throwing.
So instead of having three QBs in off-season camps and the beginning of Training Camp, they can have three plus Watson slowly (hopefully) rounding into shape. And as I've said often, shoulder injuries are tricky. The recovery process isn't always linear with shoulder injuries.
I think they learned their lesson after kind of going half-assed with their QB room at the beginning of last season.
It's funny how when I bring this up other fans like to put their fingers in their ears. But the reality, despite the mediocre play overall, is that this injury is very unique. We're over 6 months from the injury occurring and he's just picking up the football to start throwing. Compare that to a lot of other serious injuries (ACL, hell even achilles tears) and you see guys already significantly ahead of what conditioning for those things look like.
I wouldn't doubt for a second there's behind the scenes serious concerns about re-injury or just long-term issues. Combine that with well below average overall play and missing 39 games he could have played over the the last three seasons? This could get even uglier, fast, and having much more competent back-ups is very prudent.

We aren't privy to all the info on the injury, of course, but absolutely they could and should have some concern regarding this injury. Shoulder injuries to throwing athletes are never something to easily dismiss.
But we are where we are with this. Honestly, I wouldn't be shocked if there's a setback or two and he ends up on the injured list to start the season. I also wouldn't be shocked if he barely plays this season. I'm not saying either is going to happen, but I wouldn't be shocked.

And the same can be said for Chubb with knee injuries to RBs. That is why I like the Foreman signing. Got to be ready for worst case for either one or both of these players.

Especially considering that Chubb will be entering his seventh NFL season.

Outside of the albatross contract the Watson situation is interesting. If they expect him to be ready why sign Winston, Huntley and still have DTR in the wings? That's a crowded room. Browns getting ready to give Watson the Wilson treatment?

DW is bringing his "Leftys Cheesesteaks" to Cleveland area and possibly other Oho locations.

I doubt it, for this season at least. Next year could be different.
I think the QB's are two fold.
1. They are going to want to manage throws by Winston in camps. Having the extra QB allows for that.
2. The back-up and 3rd QB are unsettled. Let the 3 settle that in camp on who's 2 and 3 with the odd man out cut or possibly traded. I don't think DTR is as entrenched as some people think.

I don't know. Seems we would have had some indication. I really didn't pay any attention, but did DTR dress after that? We wouldn't have had him dress and on the bench if he had a lingering concussion.
