Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson will start against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, head coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters Friday.
A right rotator cuff strain has prevented him from playing the team’s last four contests. He made his most recent start on Oct. 22 against the Indianapolis Colts. But he left that game in the first quarter after taking a hit to the shoulder and falling from the force.
He was a full practice participant on Friday, an improvement from his limited participation on Wednesday and Thursday.
On Thursday, Watson said he “jumped the gun,” in the attempt to return. Hopefully, that won’t be the case on Sunday.
