What are the BEST & WORST-CASE scenarios for Deshaun Watson, Shedeur Sanders & Jared Verse in 2026?

The Cleveland Browns have three players whose 2026 outcomes could dramatically shape the direction of the franchise. The best-case scenario for Deshaun Watson is a legitimate career resurgence in Todd Monken's offense, while the worst case is more struggles that eventually open the door for Shedeur Sanders; for Shedeur, the ceiling is getting his opportunity and proving he can be Cleveland's long-term QB, while the downside is spending the season without enough meaningful reps to answer that question. And for Jared Verse, replacing Myles Garrett creates enormous expectations — could he emerge as the next dominant face of the Browns defense, or will the pressure of being the centerpiece of that blockbuster trade make Year 1 in Cleveland much more difficult?
