"This story was updated to add new information."

Baltimore will meet Cleveland in the first of two regular-season meetings in Week 8, and they're unlikely to face quarterback Deshaun Watson.

The Browns signal-caller suffered what looked to be a season-ending Achilles injury during the team's Week 7 game against the Bengals.

Watson went down on a non-contact injury, and the quarterback was distraught as he was carted off.

Former UCLA star quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson entered the game to replace Watson.

In his third season in Cleveland, Watson has struggled, posting the lowest QBR of all qualified passers. He was 15-of-17 for 128 yards Sunday before the injury.

Update:

Watson has in fact, suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon, and he'll miss the remainder of this season.
