Cleveland Browns open practice window for QB Deshaun Watson
- On Dec. 3, 2025, the Cleveland Browns designated quarterback Deshaun Watson for return to practice, opening a 21-day practice window to evaluate adding him to the 53-player active roster.
- Recovering from two Achilles ruptures, Deshaun Watson suffered the initial injury in Week 7 of 2024 and re-ruptured the tendon during rehab, remaining on the Physically Unable to Perform list since training camp.
- Kevin Stefanski said Watson will do individual drills first, noting 'He'll be out there today, which is outstanding for Deshaun.'
- Cleveland must activate Watson by December 24 or he will remain on the reserve list for the rest of the season, with five regular-season games remaining and a 21-day evaluation window.
- The 3-9 Browns, entering their Dec. 7 game, have started three quarterbacks this season and face pressure due to Deshaun Watson's fully guaranteed $230 million contract and 19 games played.
