Deshaun Watson doesn’t plan on missing any time this upcoming season. The Cleveland Browns quarterback proclaimed on Thursday that he will be ready to play when his team kicks things off in Week 1 of the 2024 campaign, via Cleveland.com.
Watson has been working his way back from shoulder surgery, which he underwent following the Browns’ Week 10 win over the Ravens last season. Watson went 5-1 as Cleveland’s starter in 2023 before suffering the season-ending injury.
