Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson went down with a noncontact injury late in the second quarter against the Cincinnati Bengals. The team shortly ruled Watson out for the rest of the game with an Achilles injury.
Following the game, Browns coach Kevin Stefanski said the team feared Watson would be lost for the season. “Let’s get the tests first,” Stefanski told reporters, “but that’s what it looks like.”
Dorian Thompson-Robinson replaced Watson under center after Watson was carted off the field. However, Thompson-Robinson suffered a finger injury, which thrust emergency quarterback Jameis Winston in during the final moments of the 21-14 loss.
