Controversy Surrounds Browns' QB Decision as Former Player Weighs In

Former Browns quarterback Robert Griffin III claims that Deshaun Watson was not the preferred choice for starting QB, suggesting internal support for Shedeur Sanders.

Amidst fan outrage, Cleveland Browns head coach Todd Monken has named Deshaun Watson as the starting quarterback for Week 1, a decision that has drawn criticism from supporters who believe Shedeur Sanders should have been chosen instead.

Former Browns quarterback Robert Griffin III, now an NFL analyst, indicated that many within the organization favored Sanders over Watson. Griffin stated that Watson's selection was influenced by his substantial contract, which totals $230 million, and suggested that ownership played a role in the decision-making process.

Griffin's comments followed Watson's controversial remarks about fans who booed him during a preseason game. Despite Watson's performance being deemed superior in training, the debate continues as the Browns prepare for their season opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars on September 13.
