Deshaun Watson’s new head coach with the Cleveland Browns, Kevin Stefanski, and a few of Watson’s new teammates met with the media on Wednesday at the Browns facility in Berea, Ohio, as the team participates in its voluntary offseason program.
Stefanski, quarterback Jacoby Brissett, wide receiver Amari Cooper and cornerback Denzel Ward spoke about Watson, who reported for the Browns’ voluntary offseason program Tuesday after waiving his no-trade clause to go to Cleveland earlier this offseason and then signing a fully guaranteed five-year, $230 million contract.
You can check out some of what Stefanski, Brissett, Cooper and Ward had to say about the former Clemson and Houston Texans quarterback and three-time Pro Bowler below:
