The Cleveland Browns will have a huge decision to make at the quarterback position during the upcoming NFL offseason. With Deshaun Watson still locked in for tw

Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson was in the midst of one of his worst statistical seasons before suffering a season-ending Achilles tear, leading to questions about his future with the franchise.

NFL legend Troy Aikman hit the Browns with a sobering take on the reality of their quarterback situation going forward.

The Cleveland Browns 2024 season was over before it started due to their decision to stick with Deshaun Watson, who had proven to be terrible since

He has a big arm and has led the league in both passing yards (5,109) and interceptions (30) in the same season (2019). He has led Cleveland to wins over the Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers in five games as the Browns' starter this season, during which he is 2-3.

Since acquiring Watson via a blockbuster trade in 2022, the Browns have mostly picked up backup quarterbacks to support their $230 million quarterback. That group includes Jacoby Brissett, Joshua Dobbs, Dorian Thompson-Robinson and Jameis Winston.

Cleveland is 2-3 with Winston starting, including upset wins over the Steelers and Ravens, and has largely played a much better brand of football with him leading the way.

Deshaun Watson got criticism when he wasn't even in the game on Monday night. During the Cleveland Browns' Monday Night Football matchup with the Denver Broncos, ESPN's Joe Buck and Troy Aikman openly questioned Cleveland's decision to keep playing Deshaun Watson prior to his season-ending injury.

In the midst of a disappointing 3-8 season that’s featured starting quarterback Deshaun Watson struggle under center before suffering a season-ending Achilles injury in Week 7, Cleveland brass is looking “to add competition to the room” currently vacated by the team’s $230 million signal-caller, according to Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer.
