What happened: Saturday marked Watson's first home appearance since he tore his right Achilles in October 2024. He entered from the bench in the second half and threw an interception.
Why it matters: Cleveland's regular-season starter remains unsettled. Watson's strained relationship with Browns fans adds another complication to a decision already carrying the weight of his $230 million guaranteed contract.
By the numbers: Watson completed 5 of 12 passes for 36 yards with no touchdowns and one interception. Cleveland lost 31-7.
What to watch: Cleveland's Week 1 depth chart will determine whether Watson returns to the home field as the starter.
