Watson banned 11 games, maintains innocence

Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson has been suspended for 11 games and fined $5 million after a settlement between the NFL and the NFL Players Association.

www.espn.com

Looks like the league pushed back from the 6 games and NFLPA agreed on 11 games, 5 million and some extensive counseling. Nearly double what the arbiter suggested.

Stupid.

Don't forget $666K in game checks.

What a coincidence he comes back and plays the Texans his first game back.

I'm sure that wasn't planned, nope not planned at all...

 

[Les Grossman]

Yeah that’s absurd. The league has to have those ratings…

Are you sure about that? LMAO. Of course it was planned. I'm sure the "you're a sick Fuck" chants will be planned by Texans' fans as well."

 

[discplayer]

Well, because he IS a sick fuck.

He won't play in that game. Cleveland will sit him to get in game shape. If I'm the Browns, I'd rather lose that game than to let him play and mentally destroy him.

Browns will either be completely out of contention or in the middle of a playoff push. Don’t think he will be playing much, if at all…

 

[Canth]

Nah, I think it would be a great Browns move to play him right away in that game against the Texans...and lose.

LMAO. He has damn near 4 months to get in game shape. That won't be any reason for them to sit him that game. Depending on their record, they may sit him to diffuse what could be expected to be a very negative/volatile crowd reaction towards Watson.

 

[zabavka]

As long as they keep him loose with plenty of massages, he'll be ready to play when he is able to, lol

 

[Aquineas]

lol I'm sure their counseling will be, "Next time, take the out-of-court settlement before it blows up"

will the crowds still be doing it 3 years from now? probably. he's damaged goods, and worse yet, on a public scale.

Yeah, I don't see this ending well for the Browns or Watson.

They should have drafted Mitch

What type of game shape does a QB need to be in lol?

I’m sure he won’t lose any timing with his receivers over the next 3 months….lol

 

[Briggs is GOAT]

Hope his other ACL gets torn. Arrogant fella, that Deshaun Watson.

Mitch is better anyways. Fields too, and Baker.

That’s not what game shape means
