Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson left Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals with a non-contact leg injury and had to be carted off the field.
Watson planted his right leg in the first half as he started to scramble and immediately fell to the turf in considerable pain.
Trainers tended to Watson on the field as backup quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson warmed up.
In the midst of Watson leaving on a cart, cameras caught how emotional he was as he left the field.
After some time had passed, the Cleveland Browns social media account would post that Watson was out with an Achilles injury.
Instead of fans being saddened by that news, many of them were cheering it on.
Yikes.
The Cleveland Browns quarterback was carted off the field after his right calf muscle appeared to pop, indicating an Achilles injury.
It’s been a rough season for Deshaun Watson and the Browns, who started the season 1-5. Last week, they traded away Amari Cooper.
The Browns Trade of Deshaun Watson Continues To be The Worst Trade In History
The Deshaun Watson trade was a significant NFL trade. The Browns sent several draft picks to the Texans to secure him while giving him a huge deal.
Watson is in his fourth year with the Browns after signing a fully guaranteed $240 million contract that is well on the way to being arguably the worst deal in NFL history.
Since his trade, he has played in six games each year, and when he finally makes it to his seventh game, he is likely to be out for the remainder of the year.
