Who Should I Start? Deshaun Watson or Taysom Hill

Tuesday, July 22, 9:10 PM

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.

New Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill (knee) is working off to the side with a trainer in a jersey for the first time at training camp on Sunday, according to Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football. The Saints have not given a timetable for when Hill might return to practice with the rest of his teammates, but he has made positive progress in his rehab from a torn ACL that he suffered in Week 13 of the 2024 season. The 34-year-old veteran Swiss Army knife landed on the Physically Unable to Perform list to begin training camp, and his availability for Week 1 of the 2025 regular season is up in the air. Hill's specific role in the Saints' offense might also be up in the air under new head coach Kellen Moore, leaving his fantasy value more cloudy than ever before. Will Hill be able to bounce back after his serious knee injury? Fantasy managers in most leagues should be avoiding him entirely this year.
