How much the Browns can collect in insurance money if Deshaun Watson misses all of 2025
The Browns have Watson’s contract insured. What does it mean now that he’s re-ruptured his achilles?

(and if I'm being honest I'm not sure this article is exactly correct, that said, whatever is accurate, is that they have a whole bunch of this insured, including some of his prorated signing bonus if the other article I read is more correct than this one... EITHER WAY... cutting him now is a bad idea)

Letting him stay in your building is toxic . You’re sucking for years trade your assets and start completely over. The Browns sold their soul for Watson. Burn it down.

Browns' Watson tears Achilles again, has surgery
Cleveland Browns QB Deshaun Watson underwent surgery Thursday after tearing his Achilles for a second time, the team announced, adding that Watson "will likely miss significant time during the 2025 season."
The Browns hold the No. 2 pick in the 2025 NFL draft, which could be used on one of the top quarterback prospects.
"I think the reality of it is that room, it will look different next year," Berry said Monday.
Watson has two years remaining on the five-year, fully guaranteed $230 million deal he signed before the 2022 season. The Browns owe Watson $46 million in each of the next two seasons and he has cap hits of $72.9 million in 2025 and 2026, currently the second highest in the NFL. Watson has played in just 19 games since the Browns traded three first-round picks for him in March 2022. He posted the lowest Total QBR in the NFL before his season-ending injury.

Just sayin': If the Browns can't trade for a QB1 or sign a free agent QB1 (and there isn't much there), they will need to draft one. The bad news is that 2025 doesn't appear to be a very good year for drafting QBs.

Browns Must Acquire Obvious QB After Surprise Deshaun Watson Injury News
It's widely expected that Colorado QB Shedeur Sanders and Miami QB Cam Ward will be the top two picks. If Sanders goes first to the Titans, Ward is an ideal fit in Cleveland and would excel in Kevin Stefanski's offense.

Grab Cousins. I think you could get him for a league minimum when Atlanta dumps him. Then maybe grab Fields and/or Lance and let them all fight it out for next year. Chances are they’ll suck bad enough to have a high pick in 2026 when there may be better options.

Super short sighted to force a QB pick bc Watson has been trash. Team would be much better to focus on position players in draft, and find a “guy” for next year…..in which you’ll suck, but that’s what happens when you put your team in “cap hell” in trading and signing Watson to a $250M 5 year deal.

nope....career backups or outright busts for the higher end guys. It's not a strong QB class even though ESPN will hype it up as one.

Did he re-tear the Achilles while he was trying to sexual harass somebody? I'm sure he was told to avoid physical activity but maybe the temptation was too great.
