## Resource

The Cleveland Browns made it official on Monday and announced Deshaun Watson as the starting quarterback. This comes just days after Watson proclaimed his hate for the fan base. The Browns have slapped their fans in the face here and once again operate as a bozo franchise. Shedeur Sanders was the clear choice and when he is starting by Week 4, this will all feel very stupid. In the AFC west we got some big injury news as Ashton Jeanty left practice early and Bo Nix made his return. The Las Vegas Raiders shouldn't be overly concerned though as Jeanty just has a sprained ankle. In Denver, the Broncos should be thrilled with how Nix looked in his first action since his own ankle injury. Finally, the Seattle Seahawks and Tennessee Titans played in a primetime preseason matchup on Sunday and sadly for the Hawks, there were some major injuries throughout the week in Nashville. Talent loss plus injury could be enough to stop a repeat. Speaking of repeat, the Titans repeated their poor performance from last week's preseason game giving pause about one of the NFL's young teams.
