Watson appears among Mulugheta’s marquee clients, illustrating Mulugheta’s ability to secure top-end contracts for seasoned quarterbacks. Watson’s inclusion highlights Mulugheta’s reach across career stages, with implications for how veteran QBs negotiate structure, guarantees, and incentives that could influence fantasy value in Cleveland and beyond.

Watson is cited in context of Tony Buzbee's civil suits against him, with Buzbee having represented plaintiffs in Watson's cases. The reference underscores the heightened off-field scrutiny surrounding the Texans organization through connections to a high-profile figure tied to the Browns’ signal-caller's public legal saga.

Deshaun Watson is the established starter in a crowded Browns QB room. His health and performance are the fulcrums around which the rookies' development and backup plans pivot. The coaching staff is evaluating depth to ensure Watson’s durability while maintaining a pipeline for future leadership and quarterback depth. Fantasy relevance remains high for Watson, with backups serving as buffers rather than primary options.

Watson is cited as a reference point for arbitration and disciplinary processes, illustrating how the league handles high-profile cases. His situation with the independent arbitrator underscores that Rice’s potential discipline could follow a precedent-driven, negotiated path or a judge-determined outcome.

Watson remains on the Browns’ roster but is expected to miss the season because of injuries, leaving Flacco as the Week 1 starter. His presence looms as a future upgrade, but the immediate team aims hinge on Flacco’s steadiness and the QB room’s depth as Pickett and the rookies deal with injuries.
