candyman93 Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 The #Browns quietly removed a clause from Deshaun Watson's contract this offseason that would have protected him in the event of a future suspension, according to @JayGlazer on FOX. Per the report, if Watson is suspended again, Cleveland could reclaim his guaranteed money. woah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MWil23 Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 Just now, candyman93 said: I’m wondering too They probably did this when they restructured his deal Guaranteed cash up front and billed it as a restructure while removing a clause and sneaking it by the agent or else it was a compromise with this coming down the pike and bypassing a long legal process when the Browns move to void guarantees and Watson counter-sues.

To be honest this is Watson thinking he can hit the market as a unrestricted free agent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bad bro I been hella busy I havent really posted in the forum at all But yeah pretty annoying. It’s like we can never get comfortable without something popping up. glad we got language in the contract where we can get out the guarantees. Let the legal process play its way out. Maybe we can trade for Stafford if stuff gets terrible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nugpimpen Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 Didn't see it clarified here, but saw that we didn't really change anything with the contract. Sounds like 22 and 23 he had contract protection, but starting this year there aren't any if he gets suspended for an allegation that he didn't make known to the Browns up front. So if this new allegation has legs and the league acts, then maybe there Is a shot for us to void guarantees. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
