Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson has cleared the NFL's concussion protocol, according to reports on Saturday, November 7, 2026. Watson, who sustained a head injury during the team's previous game, completed the required steps and is now eligible to return to practice and game action.
The Browns' medical staff evaluated Watson throughout the week, and he passed all necessary cognitive and physical tests. His availability for the upcoming game will depend on the coaching staff's decision, but the clearance removes the final medical hurdle.
