Cleveland Browns' quarterback, Deshaun Watson, is set to undergo season-ending shoulder surgery following injuries sustained during a game against the Baltimore Ravens. The injuries, which include a high-ankle sprain in his left ankle and a displaced fracture to the glenoid, part of the shoulder, were revealed through an MRI. Watson, a three-time Pro Bowler, joined the Browns in 2022 following a trade from the Houston Texans.

Despite his injuries, Watson led the Browns to a victory against the Ravens. The Browns are currently holding a 6-3 record, with a strong defensive unit. Watson's backup, P.J. Walker, has started three games this year, contributing to victories over the Indianapolis Colts and San Francisco 49ers. In the wake of Watson's injury, Browns rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson will start at quarterback.

Watson is expected to make a full recovery and return for the 2024 season. Last year, Watson was suspended for 11 games and fined $5 million following accusations of sexual misconduct. Watson had previously missed games due to a rotator cuff strain in his throwing shoulder. The team doctors determined immediate surgery was necessary to avoid further structural damage.
