Deshaun Watson operated from his damage-control playbook ahead of his Browns debut – 'Football questions only.' 'It’s nearly impossible to separate football from 'non-football' issues,' JarrettBell writes in his latest column. 'Questions persist.'
What’s the mental toll on Watson? After such an extended layoff, it’s one thing to knock off the rust and get up to speed in reacting to blitzes and disguised coverages. I’m wondering whether the weight of Watson’s legal issues will alter the course – and we’re talking football here, for a moment – for a player who commanded a fully guaranteed, $230 million contract on top of the six draft picks the Browns traded away to get him.
Listen to the declarations from coaches and teammates, and it appears that Watson has been in a good space and taken the proper steps to gain trust inside the building. Such challenges didn’t stop Watson from engaging in the self-inflicted actions that led to the mess that put his career on hold. But perhaps they will add context as he seeks to re-establish his way.
