The Cleveland Browns are making it clear that their goals for the season aren't done just because of the season-ending shoulder injury to Deshaun Watson. The surprising announcement led many to start writing the Browns off, particularly after Watson just rebounded from an early pick-six to lead a surprising 33-31 win over the Baltimore Ravens.
When asked about keeping their goals for the year, tight end David Njoku said, “It’s realistic as hell. Ain’t s**t change,” via Scott Petrak of The Chronicle-Telegram.
In four games without Watson earlier this year, Njoku had 201 receiving yards. No. 1 receiver Amari Cooper also had a 100-year receiving game during that period.
Earlier this week, cornerback Greg Newsome II stuck up for his and called out anyone who might count out the Browns now that Watson is injured. He posted on X, “Jump off board if you want. You will regret it.”
