Deshaun Watson is set to start at quarterback for the Cleveland Browns in their preseason opener against the Chicago Bears on Saturday. First-year head coach Todd Monken announced that Watson will play the first half, while Shedeur Sanders will take over in the second half.
In the following preseason game on August 22, Sanders will start against the Buffalo Bills and play the first half, with Watson coming in for the second half. Monken expressed his intention for both quarterbacks to experience two-minute situations during the games.
Watson, who has faced injuries and a suspension in recent seasons, is looking to revitalize his career after a challenging period. He has a record of 9-10 with the Browns, throwing 19 touchdowns and 12 interceptions in 19 games. Monken noted that he has observed positive developments in Watson's performance during training.
