Report: Browns 'Cautiously Optimistic' Deshaun Watson Will Play vs. Colts amid Injury

The Cleveland Browns reportedly have some hope that quarterback Deshaun Watson will be back in the starting lineup Sunday after missing the team's past two games with a throwing shoulder injury.

According to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, the Browns are "cautiously optimistic" Watson will suit up in Week 7 against the Indianapolis Colts.

Journeyman P.J. Walker started in place of the injured Watson in Week 6, and he helped the Browns pull off a major upset, beating the previously undefeated San Francisco 49ers 19-17 in Cleveland.
