Cleveland Browns Eye Kirk Cousins Amid QB Changes

As the Cleveland Browns approach the offseason, attention is on their quarterback situation, particularly regarding Deshaun Watson, who is recovering from a torn Achilles. Reports suggest the team is considering Kirk Cousins, currently with the Atlanta Falcons, as a potential competitor for Watson, who has struggled since his acquisition in 2022. The Browns, burdened by Watson's fully guaranteed $230 million contract, may explore options for a veteran quarterback to enhance their performance after a disappointing season. While Watson is expected to remain with the team due to a restructured contract, speculation surrounds Cousins, especially if the Falcons cut him ahead of his bonus deadline. Additionally, Browns fans are expressing mixed feelings about Cousins, viewing him as a better option than Watson's recent play, despite his own subpar season. The offseason could also see the Browns pursue other veterans like Aaron Rodgers to bolster their quarterback depth.
