Watson (Achilles) was placed on the active/PUP list by the Browns on Tuesday,
Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSISAs expected, Watson will officially open training camp on the sidelines as he recovers from a second right Achilles procedure that he underwent in January. The quarterback is projected to miss the beginning of the 2025 campaign, and once healthy, it seems unlikely that the 29-year-old will regain the starting role in Cleveland. The Browns will enter camp with
Joe Flacco,
Kenny Pickett, Dillon Gabriel and
Shedeur Sanders as healthy options at QB.
