Deshaun Watson Suffers Setback in His Achilles Rehab

Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson has encountered a setback in his recovery from a torn Achilles tendon, as confirmed by General Manager Andrew Berry. This development, discovered during a routine medical evaluation, is expected to prolong Watson’s rehabilitation process. The team is currently assessing whether additional surgery will be necessary, and it’s uncertain how this will impact his availability for the 2025 NFL season via Reuters

Watson sustained the Achilles injury on October 20, 2024, during a game against the Cincinnati Bengals, which ended his season prematurely. Prior to the injury, he participated in seven games, with the Browns posting a 1-6 record during that span. In his absence, the Browns have been exploring other quarterback options, including signing Bailey Zappe from the Kansas City Chiefs’ practice squad via The Sun

The Browns hold the No. 2 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, which could influence their strategy regarding the quarterback position, especially given the uncertainty surrounding Watson’s recovery.

Watson has been on vacation and mostly away from the team since being injured. He often posts up on his girlfriend’s Instagram account flaunting his wealth.
