And the Browns thought the appropriate response was a record-setting contract.
What a shitshow of an organization.

What a shitshow of an organization.
From what I have read, this is my understanding ... with a little paraphrasing.
Watson had a no-trade-clause, so Houston had to work-out a deal; and, then get Watson to approve it.
The Texans worked-out acceptable trades with the Saints, Falcons, Panthers and Browns.
Watson then started speaking with those teams, and visited at least some. He then narrowed-down his choices to Atlanta or New Orleans, telling Carolina and Cleveland ... 'You Bums are Out'.
Cleveland then said to Watson and his reps ... 'Wait a second Deshaun baby! What if we increase your already bloated contract and fully guarantee it. And, we'll make the 2022 salary a low amount, so if you are suspended for all-or-part of 2022 and lose salary, you will not lose that much $.'
Watson thought about that for a Nano-Second, and said: 'Cleveland sounds like a lovely place to play football.'
Yup. Had read some of the same stuff.
Absolute shitshow organization.
There's plenty of reaction out there, from Browns fans, who don't want any part of the team now.
The thing is, at some point, he will play. If he throws for 350, with three TDs and runs for another TD to beat the Ravens or Steelers on a Monday Night, how many of those fans will start cheering and supporting again?
The thing is, we actually don't know what's going to happen.
The scope of what can only be described as predatory behavior by him.. criminal charges or no.. is pretty profound.
The civil cases will matter here, imo.
I agree with the basic principle that Anything is Possible. However, life experiences tell me that right-or-wrong, good-or-bad, just-or-unjust, Deshaun Watson will play again in the NFL.
Also expect Bauer to pitch again in the Majors.
May be awhile. May be wrong. But experience tells me it will happen.
You know, I really feel sorry for Browns fans, and I hope this situation has a happy ending ...
Oh, wait ..
Oh, wait ..
Maybe… maybe not.
More likely Watson plays at some point.. but I think there’s a good chance it’s a longer road back than many expected.
He looks like he'd be a real shit stain to work for.
Baker Mayfield excused from Browns mandatory minicamp next week
Browns QB Baker Mayfield will be excused from mandatory minicamp, a mutual decision between him and the team, coach Kevin Stefanski confirmed Wednesday.

If I was Mayfield I would go through the entire camp and kick ass. No reason to stop your own development as a QB with reps and shit.
Then if the suspension goes down and they start hoping maybe I'll play for them I would offer them to tongue my nutsack.

I would really like to know the whole story on Mayfield. Something just isnt right about this situation.
Jesus, were the Texans complicit in all this shit? They better make sure their retainers are up to date.

This appears to be getting worse. This day and age, he’s going to get buried by social media.
How the Texans and a Spa Enabled Deshaun Watson’s Troubling Behavior (Published 2022)
Watson met at least 66 women for massages over a 17-month period, far more than previously known. He had help from the Houston Texans, including nondisclosure agreements, in making appointments.
"What has become clear is that the Houston Texans organization and their contracting 'massage therapy company' facilitated Deshaun Watson's conduct," Buzbee, the attorney for the 24 women who filed suits against Watson, said in a statement, via ESPN.
"In many of these cases, the Texans provided the opportunity for this conduct to occur. We believe the Texans organization was well aware of Watson's issues but failed to act. They knew or certainly should have known.
"We intend to make sure all involved in Watson's conduct are held accountable, in addition to, and including, Watson himself."
