Who Should I Start? Case Keenum or Deshaun Watson

Sunday, July 20, 8:13 PM

Chicago Bears quarterback Case Keenum (undisclosed) was activated off of the active/Non-Football Injury list. The veteran landed on the list on Saturday. However, he's now able to be on the field for training camp. Keenum played for seven different teams before signing with the Bears in April. He's appeared in 80 regular-season contests, throwing for 15,175 yards, 79 touchdowns, and 51 picks off of 62.3% passing. Keenum missed the entire 2024 campaign because of a foot injury. While it appears the signal-caller is finally healthy, he won't have any value for fantasy managers, considering he is projected to be the No. 3 quarterback on the depth chart behind Caleb Williams and Tyson Bagent.

The Cleveland Browns have placed quarterback Deshaun Watson (Achilles) on the active/physically unable to perform list, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Pelissero notes that Watson's status for the 2025 season is "up in the air." Watson tore his right Achilles tendon in Week 7 of the 2024 season, then tore it again while rehabbing this past January. As a result, it's unlikely he factors for Cleveland this season. The Browns have a crowded QB room entering training camp. Veteran Joe Flacco and former first-round pick Kenny Pickett are the favorites to win the job for Week 1, while 2025 draft picks Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders bring some added competition. Even when Watson returns to full strength, he may no longer be in the Browns' plans. The 29-year-old has struggled whenever he's been on the field for Cleveland.
