The Cleveland Browns’ quarterback enigma seems to have no end. Baker Mayfield is now off to the Carolina Panthers after a headlining trade. But the problem does not end there. The troubles surrounding Deshaun Watson continue to linger, and the chance of him receiving a suspension. Moreover, the franchise could have a new QB in the mix.

Be it the fallout with Mayfield or signing Deshaun Watson in an illustrious contract. The Cleveland Browns quarterback drama remains a significant part of the offseason. Baker is out of the franchise. But the team needs an experienced QB to back up the situation in case of need.

Deshaun Watson is waiting to hear whether the NFL will suspend him for all or part of the 2022 campaign. However, he might face an indefinite suspension from the league. To keep situations on a safer side, the Cleveland Browns may hunt for a different quarterback to back up Jacoby Brissett if the QB1 receives a protracted ban.

Multiple Sources Reveal Grim Reality Behind Baker Mayfield‘s High Profile Cleveland Browns Exit

As per Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com, “With training camp beginning July 27, the Browns are hoping for a decision sooner than later so they can plan accordingly. If Watson is out for a lengthy period of time, they’ll will sign a quarterback to back up interim starter Jacoby Brissett. There’s growing sentiment within league circles that Watson will play at some point this season despite the NFL arguing for an indefinite suspension of at least the full season with a chance to apply for reinstatement afterwards.”

If Watson is indefinitely out for the season, the chances for the Browns to make a postseason run.

Possible substitutes for the Browns if Deshaun Watson gets a suspension

Joshua Dobbs, Jacoby Brissett, and Deshaun Watson are among the players on the QB depth chart. QB Brissett may not look like an elite force, but Cleveland has faith in him to begin the season. There aren’t many choices for the Browns in free agency if Cleveland signs a new quarterback.
