The Browns face a quarterback crossroads as Watson eyes a return from Achilles rehab and a season of uncertainty looms. Four-QB depth is on the table: keep Watson, Flacco, and the rookies Gabriel and Sanders, or trim veterans and let the youngsters audition. A trade or benching would signal a rebuild while preserving cap space and future assets.

From a fantasy angle, the drama creates value shifts: Watson’s return could restore top tier upside while risk persists, Gabriel and Sanders gain reps for dynasty relevance, and Flacco’s leadership could slow rookie gains. The Week 1 near miss against Cincinnati and the Ravens setback color every decision as Cleveland weighs how to balance present competitiveness with a long term plan.

Rachaad White caps a dramatic 20-19 comeback for Tampa Bay in Houston with a 2-yard TD run as six seconds remain. Baker Mayfield lashed two TDs on 25-of-38 for 215 yards, fueling a 2-0 start for the Buccaneers. Houston pressed late behind a punt return and a blocked punt but couldn’t seal it, leaving Nick Chubb's TD run as a late spark. Joe Burrow faces toe surgery and months out; Minnesota’s J.J. McCarthy injures an ankle; Colts sit 2-0. A crowded slate reshapes fantasy value as Chargers and Raiders loom.
