## Resource

Deshaun Watson’s NFL comeback is hanging by a thread as he faces a brutal QB battle with Shedeur Sanders, with the Browns’ new coach Todd Monken refusing to name a starter until after minicamp. At 30 and on the final year of his $230M contract, Watson hasn’t played since tearing his Achilles last season and has only started 19 games since joining Cleveland — but he’s determined to prove himself, saying he’s grateful just to be back and focused on putting in the work every day. The pressure is on, and the competition is far from over. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
