Deshaun Watson has been named the QB1 for the start of the season for the Cleveland Browns. However, a Cleveland media personality has predicted that the team could turn to multiple quarterbacks during the season.

Watson edged the QB1 role over second-year quarterback Shedeur Sanders following their competition in preseason. Despite Sanders impressing, the Browns' coach Todd Monken has opted to begin the season with Watson under center.

Speaking on 92.3 The Fan, Adam 'The Bull' felt three of the Browns' QBs could be involved in the season. He questioned how long Shedeur Watson could stay fit, considering his injury track record.

The Bull also predicted that Cleveland would eventually turn to Sanders, who, in his opinion, might not hold the role for the rest of the season:

Browns' quarterback situation could become one of the biggest storylines of the season

Deshaun Watson now has the opportunity to silence his doubters when the regular season begins, but his performances will likely remain under the microscope, and any struggles could increase calls for Shedeur Sanders to receive an opportunity.

For now, the Browns appear committed to Watson as their starter, and Sanders will have to wait for his opportunity, with rookie Taylen Green waiting in the wings.

Cleveland will hope its quarterback situation does not become as unsettled as The Bull predicts. If Watson struggles early, the pressure surrounding the veteran could quickly intensify.
