The beauty of Todd Monken as head coach of the Cleveland Browns so far has been his authenticity. He hasn’t had many opportunities to get behind a microphone and speak to Browns fans through the local media yet, but he’s already proving to be a truth-bomb machine whenever he gets the chance.
Monken still needs to read the room when it comes to Deshaun Watson, though.
Watson’s Browns tenure started in 2022 with an unprecedented, fully-guaranteed contract and an 11-game suspension, and it only got worse from there. While he’s shown some flashes of the former Pro Bowl quarterback of the Houston Texans, he’s only managed to play in 19 games due to injuries and off-field issues.
