THE BROWNS’ WATSON CAP RELIEF STORY MAKES NO SENSE

Noah and Erik break down the confusing back-and-forth around Deshaun Watson’s injury insurance and what it actually means for the Browns’ salary cap. Mike Florio originally reported that NFLPA records showed more than $88 million in cap credits tied to Watson’s injuries. Still, Over The Cap pushed back, saying the actual figure appeared to be closer to $9.8 million. Florio then followed up after consulting a cap specialist and put the number at roughly $25.8 million. Noah and Erik sort through the different numbers, why this situation is so hard to read, and whether any of it truly changes Cleveland’s ability to move on from Watson.
