The Cleveland Browns have a decision to make this offseason, and it’s what to do with the No. 2 pick. Cleveland could take a rookie quarterback with their first-round selection.
If the Browns decide to go quarterback at No. 2, there is a great chance quarterback Deshaun Watson played his last game as a member of the Browns.

But if Cleveland decided to pass on a quarterback in the first round, Watson could be in the Browns’ plans as soon as 2026.
Last year, Watson tore his Achilles in the middle of October, ending his season. However, he retore the Achilles sometime in January, setting back his recovery period.
Usually, an Achilles’ injury takes a full year to recover, meaning Watson will most likely miss the 2025 season. Even though Watson isn’t available this year, he posted a hype video on social media on Tuesday, working out in the Brown’s facilities.

The 29-year-old quarterback was in all Browns gear, including a walking boot on his right foot. Who knows if Watson will be in the Browns’ plans shortly, but it does look like there could still be a home for him in Cleveland.
