Cleveland Radio Host Critiques Deshaun Watson Amid QB Competition

As the preseason approaches, Cleveland Browns head coach Todd Monken has not yet determined his starting quarterback for the 2026 season. Deshaun Watson and Shedeur Sanders are in contention for the role, but Monken's recent comments regarding Watson's training camp performance have sparked criticism.

Cleveland radio host Ken Carman expressed doubts about Watson's capabilities, questioning whether fans have been misled about his potential. Carman noted that Watson has struggled with smart decision-making and consistency since joining the Browns, where he has played only 19 games over four seasons, including an 11-game suspension in 2022.

Despite the skepticism, Monken praised Watson's experience and progress, stating that he has performed well in various systems and is ahead of the competition early in the training camp.
