Derrick Deshaun Watson is a talented quarterback who has impressed one and all with his performances. The quarterback who will now feature for the Cleveland Browns played college football at Clemson. The star QB successfully led his team to a national championship win back in 2016.

However, Deshaun has been involved in a few controversies in recent times. A lawsuit was filed against him by 22 women who accused him of harassment and sexual assault. Although a grand jury recently declined to indict him in the case, he still might face suspension in the upcoming season.

Earlier it was reported that Deshaun wasn’t interested in joining the Browns. However, in a dramatic turn of events, Deshaun finally agreed to play for Cleveland. NFL Insider Ian Rapoport also confirmed Deshaun’s deal with the Browns. “Deshaun Watson will be the new QB of the Cleveland Browns. A real thing. The Browns will now trade Baker Mayfield,” he had written on Twitter.

However, not many fans were happy with this deal. Several Twitter users pointed out that it is just disheartening to see Deshaun Watson, someone who has been accused of sexual misconduct by several women raking in so much money. In fact, Deshaun has become the first QB in history to receive $230 million of guaranteed money in a single contract.

Recently, LeBron James took to Twitter to extend his support to Deshaun Watson. James shared a post which stated that Deshaun has decided to waive off his no transfer clause for the Cleveland Browns and captioned it, “Yes sir.” This infuriated netizens even more who called James out for being ignorant.
