Whereas many NFL teams would eventually get the hint, the Cleveland Browns have clearly never heard of the timeless phrase, “dig up, stupid!”
According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Monday saw the Browns restructure Deshaun Watson’s five-year, fully guaranteed $230 million contract. Watson — who once faced more than 20 accusations of sexual misconduct for what the NFL would later describe as “predatory behavior” — will now carry a cap hit of roughly $64 million from 2024 to 2026, per Over The Cap.
