Deshaun Watson was booed by Browns fans during his appearance in the third quarter of Saturday's preseason game against the Bills. Watson struggled in front of the hostile home crowd, and the reaction clearly affected him. After the game, Watson said the booing was "a disrespectful thing" and insisted it had "nothing to do with performance."
Shedeur Sanders, who also played in the game and threw an interception like Watson, defended his fellow quarterback. Per Yahoo Sports, Sanders said he didn't "really respect" the fans booing Watson. Pro Football Talk reported that Sanders "didn't appreciate" the booing.
The preseason appearance was notable given reporting from Pro Football Talk that Watson received his previous preseason start in a game not played in Cleveland, suggesting the organization may have been mindful of fan sentiment. Per CBS Sports, Browns coach Todd Monken plans to make a quarterback decision in the coming days.
