Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson expressed his disappointment after receiving boos from fans during Saturday’s preseason game against the Buffalo Bills. Watson stated he felt the reaction was “disrespectful.”
During the Browns’ preseason matchup against the Bills on Saturday, Deshaun Watson was met with boos from a portion of the Cleveland fanbase. The boos reportedly occurred as Watson took the field.
Following the game, Watson addressed the situation in a video, stating he felt the reaction from Browns fans was “disrespectful.” According to Bleacher Report, Watson said, “It was disrespectful. I’m trying to go out there and earn the trust of my teammates, earn the trust of the city, and it’s hard when you’re getting booed.”
The reason for the fan reaction stems from the controversy surrounding Watson’s past allegations of sexual misconduct and the subsequent suspension he faced from the NFL. While the Browns signed Watson to a fully guaranteed contract, many fans have expressed continued disapproval of his presence on the team. The boos during the preseason game appear to be a continuation of that sentiment.
