Cleveland Browns QB Deshaun Watson sits out preseason finale [Video]

CLEVELAND — Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson will not play in Cleveland’s preseason finale Saturday night against the Seattle Seahawks as expected.

Watson, who is coming off season-ending right shoulder surgery, dealt with some soreness in his arm during practice on Wednesday. The team said he took his full reps with the first-team offense during Thursday’s workout, which was closed to the media.

Coach Kevin Stefanski had planned to play Watson but now appears to be taking a cautious approach. Also, the Browns are dealing with injury issues at both offensive tackle spots, which may have factored into the decision.

A team spokesman said Watson is still on track to start Cleveland’s home opener on Sept. 8 against Dallas.

Backup QB Jameis Winston will start the exhibition against the Seahawks.
