Quarterback QB Deshaun Watson aiming to block out ‘noise’ after 2 turbulent seasons for Browns

Associated Press  

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. — Deshaun Watson has shifted into self-protection mode. Cleveland’s contentious quarterback, who has played just 12 games the past two seasons due to an NFL suspension followed by a shoulder fracture that required major surgery, said Friday that he’s worked on a new approach as he enters a critical Year 3 with the Browns. So, sometimes things in your brain, you just got to churn and you just got to be like, ‘Forget it.’ It is what it is.” It’s a complicated situation for the Browns, who have continued to support Watson and are now hoping he can regain the form that made him one of the NFL’s top playmakers prior to his legal entanglements and injury. “I am right where the doctors wanted me to be and just continue to follow the process, continue to follow the script, and by taking it one day at a time just lock in on the process of what’s ahead of us.” While the Browns remain optimistic that Watson will be ready for the Sept. 8 season against Dallas, they’re following a mostly conservative approach. So a lot of things kind of didn’t fall in place the last two years, but praying and taking one day at a time that everything do this year.” ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl
