For three years, the Browns contorted themselves to match Watson's strengths and desires. The reality is he never fit in.

After a setback in his rehab from an Achilles tear put his football future very much in doubt, it seems like the door is wide open for the Cleveland Browns to move on from Deshaun Watson at quarterback. And not a moment too soon, as Watson has been an abject disaster for the franchise both on and off the field.

Deshaun Watson may never again take a meaningful snap for the Cleveland Browns after the quarterback who first suffered a torn Achilles on Oct. 20 tore the Achilles again during his recovery. It sounds like at least some current Cleveland players set to remain with the club through this offseason will be just fine if Watson remains away from the team.
