        Confirmed: Deshaun Watson Has Torn Achilles

        Additional testing has confirmed that Browns QB Deshaun Watson tore his right Achilles in the Week 7 loss to the Bengals. Watson's 2024 season is over, although he should have a good chance to be ready for the start of the 2025 campaign. QB Kirk Cousins tore his Achilles on October 29, 2023 and was ready in plenty of time for Week 1. Watson's game depends much more on mobility than Cousins', though. And, of course, it remains to be seen if Watson has a job waiting for him next year. He was one of the very worst QBs in the league this season, ranking 23rd in completion rate (63.4%), 31st in yards per attempt (5.3), and 21st in Pro Football Focus passing grade (63.4). Watson still has two years remaining on his fully guaranteed contract.
