There is still time for NFL Fans to finally witness Deshaun Watson in action for the Cleveland Browns. After being handed a total of eleven-game ban by the league.
So why was Deshaun Watson banned by the NFL? To those who are not aware, let me inform you by turning the history pages – the three-time Pro Bowl selection was suspended for violating the league’s personal conduct policy following accusations of sexual misconduct. Although Watson wasn’t fined for his antics but was eventually handed a short-term ban in the next (2022-23) season.
To talk about Deshaun Watson’s performance so far against the Baltimore Ravens – he has majorly struggled but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have the prowess to create matchup problems. To be price about his stats – he has gone 0-2 and thrown for 444 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions.
When will Deshaun Watson make his debut for Cleveland Browns?
The suspension came after Deshaun Watson sexually assaulted a woman who he appointed as his massage therapist. Moreover, with another lawsuit being filed against him in the same month, Commissioner Roger Goodell was quick to state that Watson remains on track to make his return following an eleven-game suspension.
That being said, the spoken off Quarterback was acquired by the Cleveland Browns on March 18 along with a 2024 sixth-round pick in exchange for first-round picks in 2022, 2023 and 2024, a 2022 third-round pick and a 2024 fourth-round pick. Furthermore, Watson was allowed to return to the facility for meetings and to receive treatment on October 10.
To those who are unaware, this will be the first time Deshaun Watson will be allowed back onto the field for practice on November 14. As he is slated to be reinstated from the suspended list only on November. 28, the day after their home game against Tom Brady’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
