Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson is scheduled to have his ruptured Achilles tendon repaired on Friday, according to reports.

The quarterback suffered his season-ending injury in last Sunday's contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. He was attempting to escape the pocket and run for positive yardage when he sustained the non-contact injury.

Green Bay Packers team physician Dr. Robert Anderson will complete his surgery. He was named NFL Team Physician of the Year in 2016. He most recently was honored with the President's Award by the NFL Physicians Society (NFLPS) and the Professional Football Athletic Trainers (PFATS).

Many fans are unconcerned with Watson's injuries, hoping that he will not be on the roster when he is fully healthy. Whether he stays in Cleveland or not, the Browns will need to start planning for a quarterback for the foreseeable future at a minimum. With the quarterback out for the rest of 2024, the team is unlikely to provide an update on his rehabilitation situation any time soon.
