Will Deshaun Watson 'fail'? Ex-QB has 4-word prediction on Browns QB
A longtime NFL QB made a prediction about what will happen with Browns starting QB Deshaun Watson this season.
Former NFL quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, speaking during the Browns' final preseason game against the New England Patriots, made a bold prediction regarding Deshaun Watson's future with the team. Fitzpatrick stated unequivocally that Watson will fail, and once that happens, Shedeur Sanders will step in and become the starting quarterback for the Cleveland Browns. The city, Fitzpatrick added, will rally behind Sanders.
Fitzpatrick's statement, "Once [Deshaun Watson] fails, Shedeur (Sanders) is going to jump into this thing, and he s going to be the guy," was met with skepticism by some readers. The Browns' decision to start Watson over Sanders has left many outside the organization questioning the move, particularly in light of Watson's comments about fans booing him during a game. However, Fitzpatrick's simple, four-word prediction has added fuel to the fire surrounding the team's quarterback situation.
