Deshaun Watson, quarterback for the Cleveland Browns, has been diagnosed with a rotator cuff strain in his shoulder. The injury is similar to what baseball pitchers experience and typically requires 4-to-6 weeks of recovery time. Watson is hoping to shorten that window through rehab, but it is uncertain how long he will be out. He has already missed two games in the past three weeks and was limited to just 12 snaps in Week 7 before exiting the game. PJ Walker is expected to continue as the starting quarterback in Watson's absence.
