Browns QB Deshaun Watson to Suit Up for Week 1 of 2024 Season
Deshaun Watson Making Comeback After Shoulder Surgery
Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson has expressed confidence in his recovery from shoulder surgery and expects to be game-ready by Week 1 of the 2024 season.
Watson's 2023 campaign was cut short prematurely due to the injury. Despite the setback, the Browns remain optimistic about his future with the team.
Quarterback Carousel in Cleveland
Since 1999, the Browns have experienced a revolving door at the quarterback position. In the past 24 seasons, an astonishing 38 different players have started under center.
Only three seasons have seen a single quarterback start every game: Tim Couch in 2001 and Baker Mayfield in 2019 and 2020.
Trent Dilfer to Charlie Frye
Trent Dilfer, who joined the Browns in the offseason to mentor rookie passer Charlie Frye, started 11 games for the team. Frye himself made 5 starts.
A New Era with Deshaun Watson
With the acquisition of Deshaun Watson, the Browns hope to break the cycle of quarterback instability. Watson, a former Heisman Trophy winner and first overall draft pick, brings a wealth of experience and talent to Cleveland.
Other Browns Quarterbacks
Other notable quarterbacks who have started for the Browns include:
- Kevin Hogan
- Joe Flacco
- Jacoby Brissett
- Case Keenum
- Derek Anderson
Flacco's Success as Starter
Joe Flacco, who took over as the starting quarterback in 2023, led the Browns to a late-season surge. He guided the team to a 31-27 victory over the Jaguars in December.
Flacco's performance sparked optimism among fans and analysts alike, suggesting that the Browns may have finally found a long-term solution at the quarterback position.
Browns Prepare for 2024 Season
As the Browns head into the 2024 season, Watson's return from injury is a major storyline. The team is hoping that he can provide the stability and leadership that has been lacking at the position for so long.
With Watson at the helm, the Browns have the potential to make a deep playoff run. Time will tell if they can finally break the cycle of quarterback uncertainty and achieve long-awaited success.
