But he\u2019ll make his full $230 million from the Browns whether he plays for them again or not, and won\u2019t retire before it expires,\u201d Cabot\u00a0said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Nobody in their right mind would retire until a contract like that ran out, but Cabot is correct in stating that Watson does appear to be a bit ahead of schedule.<\/p>\n<p>He shared some photos of himself throwing a football on social media recently, indicating that he isn\u2019t ready to hang up his cleats and intends on coming back, whether that\u2019s with the Browns or somebody else.<\/p>\n<p>Browns fans haven\u2019t seen even a glimpse of the player Watson was during his years with the Houston Texans, and it\u2019s a shame that things didn\u2019t work out better.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully, Watson can return to the field fully recovered from his Achilles injury and use this as a turning point for his career.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 The Deshaun Watson trade couldn&#8217;t have worked out any worse for the Cleveland Browns, who gave up multiple first-round picks and gave him a $230<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":24012,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-24011","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cleveland-browns"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>\ud83d\uded1 Deshaun Watson Retirement Bombshell?
