On the heels of conflicting reports regarding Deshaun Watson’s injured shoulder, the Browns quarterback’s road to recovery could finally culminate with a return in Week 7.
The Browns (3–2) listed Watson, 28, as questionable for Sunday’s road game against the Colts hours after the QB managed to log his first full practice since Week 3. His upgrade followed a DNP on Wednesday and a limited session on Thursday.
Barring any setbacks, Friday’s update suggests Watson’s absence from the lineup may come to an end just four weeks after he initially injured his right shoulder in Week 3 versus the Ravens. The ailment, described as a deep rotator cuff confusion, kept Watson sidelined for Weeks 4 and 6, with the team’s Week 5 bye affording him extra rest.
