And if he can&#8217;t, backup P.J. Walker &#8212; who helped the Browns upset the San Francisco 49ers in Week 6 &#8212; will play in his place, per Stefanski.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this week, Watson revealed his injury was not simply a shoulder contusion, but an issue related to his rotator cuff. He explained he hasn&#8217;t felt right, and wouldn&#8217;t return to action until he knew he could play without putting the team &#8220;in jeopardy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Watson tested the shoulder in the latter practice sessions of the week. Now, it&#8217;s about seeing how his body responds before making a final decision prior to kickoff.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/news\/browns-qb-deshaun-watson-shoulder-questionable-to-play-vs-colts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After three weeks out of action, Cleveland Browns quarterback \ufeffDeshaun Watson\ufeff could return this weekend.
