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. Berry said it’s too early to determine if Watson will need another surgery. The first procedure took place Oct. 25 with Dr. Bob Anderson in North Carolina.

The Browns learned about Watson’s new medical situation during player exit meetings on Sunday, and said it’s too early to know what it means going forward.

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.
