Deshaun Watson Resists Calls for More Designed Runs Amid Browns' Offensive Struggles

The Cleveland Browns quarterback insists he is not a running back and prefers to focus on passing despite the team's lackluster performance.

  • Watson has been vocal about not wanting more designed runs, citing his role as a passer and the risk of injury.
  • The Browns' offense ranks near the bottom of the NFL in several key metrics, including passing yards and total yards per game.
  • Watson's performance has been underwhelming, with a passer rating of 71.4 and ranking 27th among qualified quarterbacks.
  • Calls for Watson to be benched are growing, but the Browns are unlikely to make a change due to his fully guaranteed $230 million contract.
  • Head coach Kevin Stefanski emphasizes that the entire offense needs to improve to better protect Watson and boost overall performance.
