Is DeShaun Watson intentionally not playing due to his fully guaranteed contract?

Was inactive again today in Cleveland loss to Seahawks.

Lots and lots of speculation about what's really going on with him, but this story has really flown under the radar nationally.

From earlier this week;

quote:

The team initially said Watson would be back in the lineup several weeks ago. Instead, he will miss what amounts to his fourth game in a row on Sunday, and he didn’t throw a football in practice this past week.

... Watson has been widely accused, most vocally by former Browns quarterback Brady Quinn, of not playing through the injury because of his guaranteed contract. A related criticism is that Watson has already soured on the Browns and wants out of Cleveland.

There is a reason sales people are on commission

Careful, according to Ryan Clark we're not allowed to question a black QB.

That’s exactly why it hasn’t gotten much traction as a story, racial implications

Watson is a malingerer.

Disgusting.

There’s got to be something in his contract to cancel it.

Maybe a massage therapist could help with the injury?

NIL is ruining college football.

Guaranteed contracts will do the same for the NFL.

I don't think any GM/owner is going to be offering any fully guaranteed contracts again any time soon due to the Watson deal.
