BEREA, Ohio — Deshaun Watson has had a setback in his recovery from ruptured Achilles surgery that will delay his return, Browns GM Andrew Berry revealed Monday.

Deshaun Watson will definitely be returning to the Cleveland Browns in 2025, but there's now a chance that he won't be able to play a single down next season.  Browns general manager Andrew Berry revealed on Monday that Watson experienced a setback while recovering from an Achilles injury that he originally suffered in mid-October.

Berry said it’s “too early to tell” if Watson can play in 2025 after Watson told doctors during the quarterback’s end-of-the-season physical that “something didn’t feel right” in his repaired ankle. Berry said the team is still gathering details on the injury.
