Cleveland Browns QB Deshaun Watson has not played a football game in nine months, and he may make it 10. While head coach Kevin Stefanski previously said he expects his starters to play in the final preseason game, he has not yet made a decision about his starting quarterback.
Watson suffered a season-ending shoulder injury last year and last played in November. He has taken things slowly throughout the offseason, but generally has been less limited in training camp. Even so, Stefanski held him out of the first two games, and now he is experiencing arm soreness.
The Browns started the day with their usual routine, but they eventually pulled Watson due to soreness.
