Deshaun WatsonQB
Watson is competing with Shedeur Sanders for the starting QB job in 2026 under new head coach Todd Monken. GM Andrew Berry and Monken have stated the decision will be based on production. From a team perspective, Cleveland gets little to no benefit starting Watson given the team is in year two of a rebuild; however, Watson personally benefits if he produces adequate tape, as it could help him secure another contract elsewhere, though not at his desired price point.
