The Browns restructured Deshaun Watson’s contract on Thursday to help get them cap compliant and free up some room for the offseason. It came a day after they got the good news that Joel Bitonio will be back for another season.

In this episode of the Orange and Brown Talk podcast, Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe discuss Watson’s contract restructure and the team’s roster goals for the upcoming season

They also talk about the future of Nick Chubb and why the Browns are letting him hit the market and if it’s the right move before they delve into the future of Elijah Moore and the plan at receiver.

Then they get into the implications of Bitonio’s return and what it means before they veer into veteran quarterback options and if they think the Browns should bring back Joe Flacco.
