Deshaun Watson issues statement to Browns fans

Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson issued an apology to the team’s fans following comments he made after Saturday’s preseason game.

Watson said his frustration got the better of him when he suggested that Browns fans were “disrespectful” to him and that their booing is personal and not performance-related.

“I thought I was going to get a little different response. But, my emotions got the best of me,” Watson said. “My comments weren’t intending to go at the fans. I understand the frustration.”

Watson added that he was determined to “take full responsibility of this opportunity.”
