Cleveland allowed an opponent to score two defensive touchdowns for the first time since Pittsburgh did it on Oct. 16, 1983. The Browns played most of the final three quarters without Chubb, who was carted off the field with what appeared to be his second major left knee injury.

The Browns beat the host Steelers in the playoffs after the 2020 season. Steelers: At Las Vegas (1-1) next Sunday, when they will try to beat the Raiders on the road for the first time since 1995.

CINCINNATI (AP) — Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow became the highest-paid player in the NFL on Thursday, agreeing to a five-year, $275 million contract extension, according to a person familiar with the deal. The market for quarterbacks was set for Burrow in late July when Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert agreed to a five-year, $262.5 million extension. Herbert’s total value and $52.5 million average per season surpassed the $260 million, five-year extension ($52 million average) that Baltimore’s Lamar Jackson signed in April. Deshaun Watson agreed to a fully guaranteed $230 million deal with Cleveland in 2022. Bengals owner Mike Brown said a year ago that the team had begun restructuring finances in order secure a long-term deal for Burrow.

has changed its personal conduct policy, expanding the offenses that warrant more serious penalties to include sexual assault “involving threats or coercion” and including “a pattern of conduct” and “offenses that involve planning” as factors that could increase punishment. These changes come one year after a disciplinary officer cited limitations of the league’s policy in issuing initial discipline to Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson, who was accused of sexual misconduct and harassment by more than two dozen women. Watson, 27, denied the accusations. He was not charged criminally and has settled 23 of the 26 lawsuits filed against him; one was withdrawn (“in light of privacy and security concerns,” according to a court filing) and two others are still active. They spoke under condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to comment publicly.

1 seed in the NFC with a 22-16 win over the visiting New York Giants on Sunday. Hurts led six scoring drives and the Eagles never trailed the Giants (9-7-1), who had already sewn up the No. 6 seed and opted to rest quarterback Daniel Jones, Pro Bowl running back Saquon Barkley and other starters. Smith finished the regular season with 4,282 yards passing, surpassing Russell Wilson's team record of 4,219 set in 2016. Baltimore's Anthony Brown was 19-of-44 passing for 286 yards and two interceptions in his first career NFL start.
Millions of football fans held their breath for close to 20 long minutes Monday night when Buffalo Bills’ Damar Hamlin had a cardiac arrest after making a routine tackle. In the largest study conducted on the subject, 99% of former NFL players showed signs of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a devastating neurodegenerative disease caused by repeated head trauma. Another key study showed that 40% of retired NFL players have traumatic brain injury, with no correlation between the number of concussions and the severity of the injury. Seau’s death brought the issue of traumatic brain injury to a boiling point, and yet the league’s steps to address the issue appear to be little more than Band-Aids. He raised his hands in an unnatural movement that can be a sign of traumatic brain injury.

CNN —After the Los Angeles Rams claimed him off waivers Tuesday, quarterback Baker Mayfield got acclimated with his new teammates very quickly on Thursday as they hosted the Las Vegas Raiders. In a sensational introduction, Mayfield led the Rams back from a 16-3 deficit, capping the game off with a 98-yard drive in a two-minute drill situation – with no timeouts – to win 17-16.

1 overall pick Baker Mayfield off waivers on Tuesday as the team looks to strengthen its quarterback room in the wake of recent injuries. The 27-year-old Mayfield was waived by the Carolina Panthers on Monday after a disappointing first season with the team.

CNN —Deshaun Watson struggled on his return to NFL action on Sunday after serving an 11-game suspension following sexual misconduct allegations. After the victory, Watson admitted his long absence played a factor in his poor play on Sunday. Thomas Shea/USA TODAY Sports/ReutersSunday’s game was Watson’s first meaningful NFL action in two years. Watson runs onto the field with his team for the game against the Texans. Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said afterwards that it’s all about getting game time for Watson at the moment.
CNN —Around 10 of the more than two dozen women who accused Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson of sexual misconduct were expected to attend his game in Houston on Sunday, according to their attorney. I was proud of them for that,” Tony Buzbee, the lawyer representing the accusers attending the game, told CNN in a statement. Makes me proud they want to stand up and be counted rather than quietly go away.”The NFL and the Cleveland Browns did not respond to CNN’s request for comment regarding the accusers’ attendance. We’re a huge football town, folks here have been lifelong fans of the Cleveland Browns,” Greene said. We believe that Deshaun Watson deserves a second chance.”The team’s “refusal to prioritize protecting women sends a disgusting message” to survivors of sexual assault, Nunes said.
When quarterback Deshaun Watson demanded a trade from the Houston Texans nearly two years ago, interested teams were faced with one of the most consistently uncomfortable problems in sports: weighing off-the-field ick against on-the-field value. The Cleveland Browns eventually decided that it wasn’t a difficult calculation at all. They not only traded three future first-round picks to acquire Watson, a player who had risen to superstardom in college at Clemson, they signed him to an unprecedented, fully guaranteed five-year, $230 million contract. In terms of dollars and draft capital, it is perhaps the most expensive deal in NFL history.
CNN —For the first time in two years, embattled quarterback Deshaun Watson returns to the field for the Cleveland Browns Sunday after serving an 11-game suspension. Watson has previously settled all but one of the sexual misconduct civil lawsuits against him. In October, a new civil suit was filed against Watson but the NFL said his status remains unchanged. The Browns will be playing Watson’s former team, the Houston Texans, Sunday. Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that Watson has the support of his teammates and the support of the Browns organization.

CNN —Deshaun Watson is expected to start for the Cleveland Browns in the first game he is eligible to return from suspension, team general manager Andrew Berry said on Wednesday. Watson is eligible to return on December 4 against his former team, the Houston Texans on the road. The 27-year-old Watson returned to the team’s training facility on October 10 and has been able to participate in limited activities. Berry was extremely complimentary of Jacoby Brissett, who has been starting for the team in place of Watson this season.

BEREA, Ohio — Suspended Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson’s status with the NFL has not been affected by a new civil lawsuit filed by a woman accusing him of sexual misconduct two years ago, the league said Friday. Watson is serving an 11-game suspension for alleged sexual misconduct while he played for the Houston Texans. On Thursday, the woman filed a lawsuit in Texas that alleges Watson pressured her into performing a sex act after a massage in 2020. Watson is only permitted to attend meetings with the Browns and work out as he moves toward a possible return, according to the suspension imposed by the NFL. The Browns traded for Watson in March and signed him to a five-year, $240 million contract.
