From the episode

Deshaun Watson, who has done himself no favors in previous offseasons, has done himself no favors as of recent. And he finishes off after the game with a really, really bad press conference... I would not be shocked if it were Shadu or Sanders starting in time for that Steelers game.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Watson's poor play and tone-deaf comments put his starting job at risk.

Watson is facing significant backlash for his recent press conference comments and poor preseason performance, leading to speculation that he could be benched or replaced by Shedeur Sanders if he struggles early in the season.
