Deshaun Watson made his 2023 preseason debut Friday night in the Cleveland Browns’ preseason contest against the Washington Commanders in Cleveland.
The former Clemson quarterback and three-time Pro Bowler played only one drive, completing all three of his passes for 12 total yards while also rushing three times for 20 total yards.
Watson is entering his first full season in Cleveland after playing six games with the Browns a year ago. Cleveland begins the regular season against the Cincinnati Bengals in Cleveland on Sunday, Sept. 10.

Chase Young gets hands on Deshaun Watson but can't get him down.

Deshaun Watson lasted one series.
Kevin Stefanski must’ve liked the movement on offense to pull him after one series….that and the slippery conditions had to play a role in not seeing him again. Not worth it. #Browns @fox8news— John Sabol (@John_Sabol) August 12, 2023
Deshaun Watson's night is predictably over. Josh Dobbs takes over with the second team offense.
Watson looked verrry comfortable. Big-time positive considering how last year wound up. Moved the chains without Amari Cooper.
