Browns GM Refuses to Rule Out Signing Deshaun Watson to Contract Extension
While on ESPN, Cleveland Browns GM Andrew Berry did not shut down the idea of signing Deshaun Watson to an extension.
Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry has not ruled out the possibility of signing quarterback Deshaun Watson to a contract extension, despite the team having Shedeur Sanders as a young backup quarterback. Watson's future with the team is under scrutiny due to his current five-year, $230 million contract and his struggles to replicate his performance with the Houston Texans since joining Cleveland.
Moreover, Watson has dealt with significant injury issues, notably re-rupturing his right Achilles tendon and not playing at all last season. Despite these challenges, Berry has expressed openness to extending Watson's contract, leaving fans to speculate whether the Browns will ultimately secure the extension this season.
