The Cleveland Browns are searching for their offensive identity in the offseason. With Deshaun Watson entering the final year of his $230 million guaranteed contract, chances are he will get the nod over Shedeur Sanders in the 2026 season. Watson didn't play last year because he was recovering from a ruptured Achilles sustained in October 2024.
For Watson to succeed, he will need a receiver who can be a red-zone threat for him. Footage was dropped on Thursday, which shows who that man could be. In the footage below, Watson throws a deep pass near the red zone.
Contesting his way through multiple defenders, Browns' 2026 draft pick, Denzel Boston, made a stunning catch. The receiver from Washington could be the Browns' answer for the No. 1 receiver in 2026.
