Watson suffered the shoulder injury in the Week 3 win over the Titans, when the Browns QB had a read-option run in the third quarter, leading to a 10-yard gain, and was seen in discomfort after being tackled by Amani Hooker.
If Watson feels any discomfort during Sunday’s game, rookie QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson could see his first NFL action. Thompson-Robinson had a solid preseason for the Browns, showcasing his ability to make accurate throws and extend plays with his legs.
With Watson slated to start, the three-time Pro Bowl QB has completed 65 of 102 passes for 678 yards, four touchdowns and two interceptions in three games.
