Deshaun Watson’s future with the Cleveland Browns remains uncertain, as Pro Football Focus listed him among 15 potential trade candidates for the 2025 offseason. While the Browns recently restructured Watson’s contract, suggesting plans to keep him next season, some analysts believe a trade could still be on the table.
PFF’s Bradley Locker pointed to Watson’s underwhelming performance in Cleveland:
“The Browns seem to be giving Watson one last chance to prove himself, but that doesn’t mean Cleveland won’t finally cut the cord… It wouldn’t be a shocker if [a newcomer] supplants Watson.”
Watson has struggled since joining the Browns, with no season-long passing grade above 66.8 and just one game graded over 80.0 in 19 appearances. Financial considerations also complicate a trade, as moving him after June 1 would carry a $26.9 million dead cap hit, compared to $80.7 million if done earlier.
Injuries have also taken a toll. Watson suffered a season-ending Achilles injury in Week 7 after playing just six games in 2023 due to injury. In seven games this season, he threw for 1,148 yards, five touchdowns, and three interceptions while rushing for 148 yards and one score.
Though Watson has career totals of 17,904 passing yards and 123 touchdowns, the Browns face a tough decision as they evaluate their quarterback options for the future.
