The Browns are paying Deshaun Watson $230 million guaranteed.

It’s a big gamble and so far, it’s been a horrible investment.

He was suspended 11 games last season and will miss 13 games this season, now out for the year with injury.

With Watson out, the Browns will start Dorian Thompson-Robinson, a rookie against the Steelers on Sunday.

Needing a quarterback, the Browns are reportedly working out quarterbacks on Friday, including former Ravens QB Joe Flacco.

The 38-year-old Flacco won a Super Bowl 10 years ago with the Ravens.

He hasn’t been a consistent starter in the NFL since 2017 and last year was 1-3 as a quarterback last season with the New York Jets.

In 2020 he was 0-4 and in 2021, 0-1.

Robert Griffin III chimed in as well. He said he can take the Browns to the Super Bowl if they sign him.
