Browns Push Watson Despite Fan Backlash | Cleveland Browns News

Cleveland Browns fans are fuming after the team named Deshaun Watson their starting QB — a move that’s sparking rumors, drama, and questions about ownership’s real motives. Despite Watson’s recent comments about the booing fans and his absence since tearing his Achilles last fall, sources close to the organization suggest it’s not Monken’s call at all — it’s the front office pushing for Watson to play, possibly to justify his $230M contract. Former NFL star Robert Griffin III claims insiders say Shedeur Sanders was the preferred choice, but ownership wants Watson on the field to earn his money. With the season opener against Jacksonville looming, the Browns’ quarterback controversy is heating up — and the fanbase isn’t buying it.
