Deshaun Watson Returns as Starting Quarterback for Cleveland Browns Against Arizona Cardinals

According to coach Kevin Stefanski, Deshaun Watson, the quarterback for the Cleveland Browns, will be starting in Sunday’s game against the Arizona Cardinals. Watson has been dealing with a strain in his right throwing shoulder, specifically in the rotator cuff, which caused him to miss most of the last four games. However, he participated in a full practice on Friday, and Stefanski expressed confidence in his readiness to play. Although Watson aggravated his shoulder in his last start on October 22, further tests showed no additional damage. He admitted that he may have returned to the game too soon against the Colts, but emphasized the importance of everyone being on the same page. PJ Walker, who was the starting quarterback in the previous three games, will now serve as Watson’s backup. Currently, Watson ranks 24th in the league in terms of QBR, with a completion rate of 61.7%, 683 passing yards, four touchdowns, and three interceptions. While he is seeing improvement in his shoulder, he remains uncertain about the timeline for full healing. Watson’s main focus at the moment is avoiding reinjury and making decisions in the best interest of the team’s future.
