From the moment he won a national championship with Clemson during his junior year, there has been no shortage of Deshaun Watson news. Most of it was good at first, as he took the NFL by storm as soon as he took over the starting quarterback position for the Houston Texans.
But then came the trade demands, and the sexual assault claims. And suddenly, the man who was supposed to become one of the next faces of the NFL has become one of the league’s most despised players in the eyes of many.
The Cleveland Browns’ Deshaun Watson trade was one of the biggest topics of discussion throughout the 2022 offseason. It spurred tons of controversy, as the Browns had given up a ton of draft capital and money for a player who was in the midst of some very troubling accusations.
