Deshaun Watson's 2025 Season In Doubt After Second Achilles Tear

Deshaun Watson's 2025 Season In Doubt After Second Achilles Tear

Browns QB Deshaun Watson had a second tear of his Achilles and underwent surgery yesterday. With only eight months until the start of the 2025 season, Watson's availability for 2025 is now in jeopardy.

Browns QB Deshaun Watson had a setback in his recovery from his torn Achilles, GM Andrew Berry revealed Monday. "We don’t have all the details yet, but it will obviously extend the recovery process for him," Berry said. He added that Watson's availability for the start of the 2025 season is uncertain. Cleveland recently restructured Watson's deal, which will keep him with the team next season. But expect the Browns to add competition via free agency and/or the rookie class. They hold the second overall pick in this spring's draft.

Additional testing has confirmed that Browns QB Deshaun Watson tore his right Achilles in the Week 7 loss to the Bengals. Watson's 2024 season is over, although he should have a good chance to be ready for the start of the 2025 campaign. QB Kirk Cousins tore his Achilles on October 29, 2023 and was ready in plenty of time for Week 1. Watson's game depends much more on mobility than Cousins', though. And, of course, it remains to be seen if Watson has a job waiting for him next year. He was one of the very worst QBs in the league this season, ranking 23rd in completion rate (63.4%), 31st in yards per attempt (5.3), and 21st in Pro Football Focus passing grade (63.4). Watson still has two years remaining on his fully guaranteed contract.
