The Cleveland Browns have provided a major update on Deshaun Watson's condition, revealing that the quarterback is progressing in his recovery but remains unlikely to return to the field anytime soon. After tearing his Achilles in October and reinjuring it in January, Watson underwent surgery and is now out of his walking boot, actively participating in meetings and rehab. Despite his efforts, Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski confirmed that Watson is expected to miss most of the upcoming season, with no firm return date set. Watson, who remains the highest-paid player in Cleveland's quarterback room, is reportedly no longer central to the team's future plans. Browns owner Jimmy Haslam admitted the franchise “took a big swing-and-miss” with the 2022 trade and $230 million guaranteed contract, acknowledging the costly gamble has not paid off. Watson, under contract through 2026, has played just 19 games over three seasons due to suspension and injuries but continues to stay engaged with the team and document his rehabilitation progress on social media. Yankees Expected to Make $75 Million Decision on Gerrit Cole as they face mounting challenges in their starting rotation. With ace Gerrit Cole sidelined until 2026 following surgery, Luis Gil out until midseason, and Marcus Stroman's status uncertain, New York is exploring options to bolster its pitching staff. One possibility includes a reunion with former Yankee Sonny Gray, now with the St. Louis Cardinals and in the second year of a $75 million contract. While Gray’s earlier stint in New York was underwhelming, his recent success and durability could offer a much-needed bridge in Cole’s absence. The decision could hinge on whether the Yankees believe Gray is worth the financial commitment and trade assets required.

Rams Encouraged to Support Matthew Stafford by Signing Six-Time Pro Bowler
Amid a focused offseason push to maximize veteran quarterback Matthew Stafford’s final years, the Los Angeles Rams have been encouraged to further bolster their offense by signing six-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Keenan Allen. After already acquiring star receiver Davante Adams to offset Cooper Kupp’s departure, adding Allen—a reliable, route-savvy veteran—could provide the Rams with a critical possession threat and solidify one of the league’s most dynamic receiving corps. With 70 receptions for 744 yards and seven touchdowns last season, Allen offers dependable production and a veteran presence, making him a strong fit in Sean McVay's offensive system alongside Adams and breakout star Puka Nacua. As the Rams look to make a deep playoff run, Allen’s experience and football IQ could be the perfect complement in a high-stakes 2025 campaign.
