The story of the Cleveland Browns 2024 season will be how QB Deshaun Watson recovers from his shoulder surgery. In a pass-happy NFL where anything a defender does could be flagged, the Browns need Watson to become a top 15 or so quarterback to capitalize on the quality defense and weapons on offense.
The story of Cleveland’s 2023 season was about injuries with RB Nick Chubb’s being the most heartbreaking.
