How Browns feel about Deshaun Watson amid unsettled quarterback situation
Deshaun Watson has become somewhat of a forgotten figure regarding the Cleveland Browns' unique quarterback situation that could involve the club having starter Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett, 2025 third-round draft pick Dillon Gabriel and 2025 fifth-rounder Shedeur Sanders on the roster for its Week 1 game against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sept. 7. For an article published on Monday, Browns insider Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer noted that Watson will miss at least the first four games of the 2025 season after he suffered a torn Achilles last October and then tore the Achilles again during his recovery. However, it sounds like the Browns haven't yet completely closed the door on Watson returning to the active roster before Week 18 wraps up. "He’s coming along well in his rehab from his re-torn Achilles repair and could be ready to go later in the season," Cabot wrote about Watson. "Whether or not the Browns will activate him remains to be seen, but they’ve been happy with how he’s attacked his rehab and how he’s helped the other QBs, especially Gabriel and Sanders." Watson has made just 19 regular-season starts with the Browns since he received a fully guaranteed five-year, $230M contract from the club in March 2022. He served an 11-game suspension related to allegations of sexual misconduct during massage sessions to open his first campaign with Cleveland. His 2023 season ended prematurely because of a shoulder issue. He then lost six of seven starts last season before he went down with the initial Achilles injury. It was suggested earlier this month that Watson could essentially force the Browns to move him to the 53-man roster if he's cleared to play this coming fall. Such a scenario theoretically would result in Cleveland having to part ways with a different signal-caller. While the previously mentioned Sanders is clearly fourth on Cleveland's current depth chart, Cabot wrote that the Browns like the rookie "a lot and will continue to develop him." Cabot added that "the Browns have always planned to keep four quarterbacks and will only pivot if someone makes them an offer they can’t refuse." Pickett presumably would become the odd man out regarding such a potential trade. Still, he first needs to fully recover from the hamstring injury he picked up on July 26 that kept him from playing in any preseason games. Meanwhile, Watson will continue his recovery behind the scenes after Browns owner Jimmy Haslam said earlier this year that Cleveland "took a big swing and miss with Deshaun." The Browns reportedly could escape Watson's deal next offseason.
More details emerge on Russell Wilson's impact on star receiver Malik Nabers
It's been an encouraging summer for the New York Giants at the sport's most important position. Rookie Jaxson Dart has flashed plenty of upside throughout the preseason, while there have been numerous reports regarding how current starting quarterback Russell Wilson has had a positive impact on Giants receivers such as second-year pro Malik Nabers, Jalin Hyatt and Wan’Dale Robinson through the summer. For a piece published on Monday, NFL insider Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated expanded on how Wilson became the leader of the Giants offense even as Dart emerged as one of the stars of the preseason. "Nabers has had a strong summer, and part of it has been the time he’s spent bonding with Wilson," Breer explained. "One story I heard about Wilson setting the tone was the room he rented for recovery and rehab in the team hotel for camp — a room that younger teammates started to gravitate to, with some borrowing from the quarterback’s methods. Nabers was at the top of the list of guys to do that, and it’s shown in how consistent he’s become, as the violent, aggressive, fast style of play he brought into the pros has started to conform to the NFL." The Giants made Nabers the sixth pick of the 2024 NFL Draft, and he played like a potential superstar as a rookie even though his club lacked top-tier talent at the quarterback position. According to ESPN stats, Nabers finished his debut pro season ranked fifth in the league with 109 receptions and seventh with 1,204 receiving yards. In total, he recorded seven touchdown catches over 15 games. While Dart performed well across New York's three preseason wins, Giants head coach Brian Daboll is sticking with Wilson as the club's QB1 for its Week 1 game at the Washington Commanders on Sept. 7. Breer seems to believe fans hoping that Dart will replace Wilson in the lineup as soon as for the Week 2 matchup at the Dallas Cowboys may be disappointed. "Wilson’s been good thus far in being a vocal leader in the meeting room and on the practice field, setting the bar as far as preparation, work ethic and the overall level of expectation," Breer mentioned. "...Wilson seems energized by the coaches’ buy-in on him, and Brian Daboll’s building an offense to lean into what he does well in an effort to get him playing fast with the ball coming out quickly." That's all well and good, but the harsh truth remains that calls for Dart to start will grow quite loud if the Giants are 0-2 ahead of their home opener against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sept. 21. As of Tuesday morning, DraftKings Sportsbook had the Commanders as six-point favorites over the Giants for Week 1.

Cal Raleigh reaches another milestone with HR against Padres
Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh has done it again. For the 50th time, to be exact. On Monday, MLB's home run leader blasted his 50th long ball of the season, one day after hitting two home runs against the Athletics to set the single-season record for home runs by a catcher in major league history at 49. He ended an eight-pitch at-bat against San Diego Padres starting pitcher JP Sears by hitting a solo shot 419 feet to left field off a 92 mph four-seam fastball, extending his home run lead and pulling him closer to breaking other MLB and club records. Raleigh moved five home runs from surpassing New York Yankees Hall of Fame outfielder Mickey Mantle's single-season home run record for a switch-hitter, who set the mark at 54 in 1961. Raleigh is also seven home runs shy of surpassing Hall of Fame centerfielder Ken Griffey Jr.'s Mariners single-season home run record (56). With more than a month until the regular season concludes on Sept. 28, Raleigh could also topple Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge's AL single-season home run record (62), which he established three seasons ago in 2022. The more records Raleigh breaks in his phenomenal season, the likelier he is to overtake Judge in the AL MVP race. Judge, a two-time winner, was running away with the award early this season, but Raleigh's season-long power surge has made him close to a co-favorite to win the award. Per ESPN Bet, Judge currently leads in odds at -120, followed closely by Raleigh at -105. The gap between the two is shrinking. At the rate Raleigh is playing, it won't be long before it's going, going, gone.
