34°Availability
Deshaun Watson has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Titans.
Fantasy Impact
Watson was designated to return from IR earlier this week. He remains unlikely to see game action this season per reports.
Deshaun Watson is reportedly “unlikely” to see game action in the 2025 season.
Fantasy Impact
While Watson has returned to practice, he is reportedly not taking those reps away from Shedeur Sanders or Dillon Gabriel. It remains unclear what the future holds for Watson.
Deshaun Watson (Achilles) was limited at Cleveland's practice on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
Watson was able to practice again on Thursday. He was again limited, which was to be expected given that he has just retaken the field after missing the entirety of the season thus far. It remains to be seen whether or not he will see any in-game action this year, but this situation isn't one that is likely to carry much in terms of fantasy implications.
Deshaun Watson (Achilles) was officially limited at practice on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Watson was officially a limited participant in his first practice back for the Browns. He has been out for the entire year so far while recovering from an ankle injury, but it looks like he may be able to see some action at the end of the season, assuming he looks good at practice. Cleveland's quarterback situation is murky right now, and fantasy managers are best off avoiding all but a couple of fantasy options on this offense for the foreseeable future.
Deshaun Watson (Achilles) will have his 21-day practice window opened and will practice Wednesday. It’s reported Watson will be limited in practice.
Fantasy Impact
With the Browns in a state of rebuilding, it’s highly likely that even if Watson is activated, he will be the backup at best. The Browns massive gamble on him failed in spectacular fashion, with Watson failing to stay healthy for large portions of his time in Cleveland, and providing little juice on the field when he wasn’t. He will be lucky to get the starting job there or anywhere else in the future.
