The full transcript from Deshaun Watson's lone press conference before his return Sunday against the Houston Texans.
Deshaun Watson excited to make Browns debut; declines non-football questions in 1st interview since Aug. 18“First off, I just want to say I am excited to be back. I am excited to be back around my teammates. I also want to thank the Browns organization, the ownership, my teammates in that locker room and all of the coaching staff for all of the support that they had for me, especially my time away.
On if he will address non-football questions in the future, given he has previously said he ‘wants to share his side of the story’: “Like I said, mostly it is the mental part of the game, understanding it, adapting and adjusting to different schemes and defenses that coordinators are trying to do not just for our scheme and our system but for everybody. I watched everybody. I watched a lot of different quarterbacks. I watched Mahomes, I watched Tua and I watched all of these guys playing that are playing every Sunday, and I try to learn from everyone. I am not the guy that kind of [watches] just myself.
On takeaways from the three offensive series he played during the preseason at Jacksonville and the differences playing in that game compared to a regular season game: “We will have to see Sunday honestly. Like I said, it might take time or it might not take time. I just want to go out there, do what I want to do and make plays as much as I possibly can. Two years is definitely a long time, but at the same time, I have been doing this since I was six years old.
