Sources close to the team confirm that Watson’s request for a trade was granted after weeks of speculation about his future in Cleveland. The quarterback, who signed a massive $230 million contract in 2022, has been embroiled in controversy and struggled with injuries, leading to inconsistent performance on the field.
The Ravens, who have been searching for a top-tier quarterback, are expected to pair Watson with Lamar Jackson, creating a formidable duo. The move has sparked mixed reactions from fans, with some praising the Browns’ shrewd business acumen and others lamenting the loss of their star quarterback.
Watson, who has been a polarizing figure in Cleveland, expressed gratitude to the organization and fans on social media, stating, “I’m grateful for my time in Cleveland, but I’m excited for this new chapter.”
The trade is set to be finalized once the NFL’s trade deadline passes. The Browns are expected to explore options for their quarterback position, potentially targeting free agents or draft prospects.
