Watson Delivers 126 Yards in Browns’ 2026 Preseason Debut

Deshaun Watson went 11-of-15 for 126 yards across two quarters in the Browns’ 2026 preseason opener against the Bears. Cleveland scored a field goal and a touchdown with him, but he looked uneven at times, was strip-sacked on a key drive, and most of his yardage came on a 43-yard screen to Dylan Sampson. A late interception by Browns rookie Michael Coats stifled a potential two-minute chance, and Watson will reportedly play again next week versus Buffalo.

"Declining QB Performance in NFL Power Rankings Plagues the League"

Quarterback play in the NFL has been subpar this season, leading to a decline in scoring and a lack of standout teams.

As a result, many games have been marred by poor quarterback play, leading to unwatchable matchups. The Arizona Cardinals sit at the bottom of the power rankings, while the Baltimore Ravens claim the top spot with their impressive performances in recent weeks.
