Watson, in fact, was spotted in a heavy winter
jacket trudging through the
snow -- yes, snow in mid-April -- to attend the program.
Quarterback Baker Mayfield, however, was not spotted at the
team's facility as
he continues to rehab his surgically repaired labrum in his left
non-throwing
shoulder.
Mayfield recently said on the "Ya Neva Know" podcast that he
felt
"disrespected 100 percent" by the Browns after the team deposed
him as
starting quarterback in favor of Watson. Cleveland surrendered
significant draft capital that included three first-round picks
to acquire Watson in a trade with the Houston Texans on March
18.
The Browns since have signed backup quarterbacks Jacoby Brissett
and Josh
Dobbs, leaving Mayfield in limbo. The team is sure to part ways
with him soon, but he's not sure of the how or the where.
Cleveland picked up Mayfield's fifth-year option for 2022 for
$18.8 million.
He was the top overall pick of the 2018 NFL Draft.
Last month, the Browns acquired Cooper and a sixth-round pick in
the 2022 NFL Draft from the Dallas Cowboys in exchange for
fifth- and sixth-round selections.
