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?

I don't think there's any doubt about that.

From a pure numbers and production standpoint it's probably the worst in history without even factoring in all the accusations against him and everything Cleveland gave up to bring him in. The latter part just takes it to a whole new level of awful.

I doubt a sports contract will ever top his in terms of awfulness. The stars truly aligned for it.
