Breiden Fehoko says Browns locker room supports Deshaun Watson
Summary

Breiden Fehoko, a former NFL defensive lineman, stated that the Cleveland Browns locker room and coaching staff back Deshaun Watson as their starting quarterback. This comes amid speculation that some players might prefer Shedeur Sanders over Watson. The Browns have not confirmed such a divide, with head coach Todd Monken designating Watson as the Week 1 starter. Fehoko emphasized that Watson's selection was based on the overall assessment of performance. Watson and Sanders did not participate in the preseason finale against the New England Patriots as the team prepares for the regular season opener at Jacksonville on September 13.
