Watson’s personal quarterback coach, Quincy Avery, and Browns tight end David Njoku have joined him at UCLA in Los Angeles to support his recovery process.
Watson provided an update on his progress, expressing excitement about his speedy healing process. Although the Browns will not rush his return, he is expected to be limited for mandatory minicamp in June.
Watson’s future with the Browns is crucial, as he represents a significant cap hit and was acquired with three first-round picks.
Browns General Manager Andrew Berry is optimistic about Watson’s impact on the team but emphasizes the importance of his health.
Despite Watson’s absence for a large part of last season, the Browns still made the playoffs, relying on strong defensive performances and impactful contributions from players like David Njoku, Amari Cooper, Joel Bitonio, and Wyatt Teller.

A season of Gropey and Dopey..
Should have kept Flacco..— Chaz (@Charlie81551131) March 19, 2024
The fact that they are stuck with this clown until 2027 is so Browns. Arguably a worse contract than the Russel Wilson contract, which was also beyond terrible.

The #Browns were scrutinized after extending David Njoku. Same thing is happening with Jeudy. I’ll trust AB here. “Identify and pay early” #Dawgpound

Throwing into the ground. He will be out 6 weeks when the season starts because it's not "healed"
