If there's one team that's definitely going to be in the market to add a quarterback this offseason, it's the Cleveland Browns. Although they do have Deshaun Watson under contract, he tore his Achilles again while rehabbing from his original Achilles injury and that setback could cause him to miss some or even all of the 2025 season.

The setback Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson suffered on his previously-injured Achilles was reportedly a new tear that required surgery. The

Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson underwent surgery on Thursday after tearing his Achilles for the second time since October, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The Cleveland Browns said earlier this week that quarterback Deshaun Watson had a setback in his recovery. It turns out it is much worse than that. The veteran quarterback rolled his ankle while rehabbing at his home in Miami and re-ruptured the Achilles. This has required a second surgery and now his entire 2025 season is in jeopardy.

The significance of Deshaun Watson's 'setback' in recovery from his Achilles tear is another surgery that could have big impact on his 2025 season.

The Cleveland Browns are casting serious doubt on the timetable of quarterback Deshaun Watson after he re-ruptured his Achilles while rehabbing at his home in Miami. This means their massive $230 million investment likely never takes another snap again in the brown and orange and potentially ever in the NFL.

Deshaun Watson’s tenure with the Cleveland Browns has been an abject disaster thus far. Watson has struggled to remain healthy in Cleveland, and when he has been available he’s struggled to look like the Pro-Bowler from his days in Houston.
