Yesterday’s return of former Houston Texans star quarterback did not go well for him. Watson failed to lead his new team, the Cleveland Browns, on a scoring drive. In fact, the only end zone pas he completed was to Texans safety Jalen Pitre.
Watson completed 12 of 22 passes for 131 yards in his first regular-season game in exactly 700 days. He also threw an interception in the end zone that negated Cleveland’s best offensive scoring opportunity.
Although NRG Stadium was half-empty, Watson was loudly booed before every Browns snap throughout the game.
