Deshaun Watson changes mind, QB accepts trade to join Browns

Associated Press  

Deshaun Watson changed his mind. “Any transaction would have no effect on the NFL’s ongoing and comprehensive investigation of the serious allegations against Deshaun Watson,” league spokesman Brian McCarthy said in an email to AP. “If the league’s investigation determines that Watson violated the Personal Conduct Policy, discipline may be imposed pursuant to the policy and the CBA.” Watson’s arrival in Cleveland is certain to trigger a backlash by some fans, but the Browns are comfortable with his character after doing their own investigation of Watson before committing to chasing him. The Browns’ public pursuit of Watson angered incumbent starter Baker Mayfield, who requested a trade. It may have also helped Cleveland’s chances of getting Watson when the team signed free agent wide receiver Amari Cooper last week.
