Deshaun Watson, QB (CLE)

Unlikely to start Sunday

Watson (concussion) "is unlikely to start" Sunday's game against the Saints, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Watson has not practiced since being placed in the NFL's concussion protocol Tuesday, and it appears he will not be cleared to suit up for Week 9. The Browns will provide an official update on Watson's status later Friday, and if he is unable to go, Shedeur Sanders would presumably get the start in his place.
