Will Deshaun Watson’s contract go down as the worst NFL contract of all time? (alien.top)

He had huge red flags in terms of character, has been a compete bust and is making Jamarcus Russell’s deal look like a bargain.

Cleveland could have been a SB contender with a decent QB and instead they gave their fans this epic disaster.

If this isn’t the worst contract of all time, what signings are worse?

The only way Watson and the Browns can turn this into anything but the worst contract of all time is if they win the Superbowl and he plays a significant part in getting them there. Their defense is looking incredible right now. Given the cap space Watson takes up and the picks they traded to Houston to get him, that team could very well be Superbowl favorites right now if they'd spent all those resources at other positions and either kept Mayfield or brought in a significantly cheaper game manager type QB.
