With Deshaun Watson entering a highly anticipated third season, he will be going into it with a heavy heart.
On Friday morning, the Cleveland Browns quarterback took to social media to announce that his father had passed away.
Fans couldn’t help but send their condolences.
Deshaun was born to Deann Watson and Don Richardson in Gainesville, Georgia.
Don Richardson l͏ef͏t͏ th͏e family͏ wh͏en Deshaun an͏d hi͏s siblings were very ͏young, remaining absen͏t from their lives.
As a result of his absence, Deshaun adopted ͏his mother De͏ann’s surname instead of Ri͏chardson͏.
Everything changed in 2006 when Habitat ͏for Humanity, with h͏e͏lp fro͏m former Atla͏nta Falco͏ns running back Warri͏ck D͏unn, gifted Deshaun and his family a new home.
That was the change they needed for Watson to improve at football, lead himself to win a National Championship with Clemson, and be drafted by the Houston Texans.
Deshaun Watson’s Heads Into All-Important Season For 2024
Much of Cleveland’s 2024 campaign will rest on Deshaun Watson’s shoulders, one of which is returning from a season-ending fracture.
The Browns’ season obviously hinges heavily on their quarterback.
Everyone understands that Watson is the Browns’ most important player heading into Sunday’s regular-season opener against the Dallas Cowboys.
Watson heads into arguably the most important season of his career. He has made just 12 starts in his first two years with Cleveland, per ESPN.
The team hopes that the Houston version of Watson will show up so that the team can reach much higher heights.
Social Media Is Pissed Off After Skip Bayless Claims LeBron James Shouldn’t Have Won MVP Over Stephen Curry
The 2024 Paris Olympics was Stephen Curry’s first ever appearance in the Paris Olympics. The Golden State Warriors star poured so much athleticism into his first appearance on the international stage that caught everyone’s attention, including popular NBA analyst Skip Bayless.
After Team USA’s 98-87 victory over France in the Olympics final, LeBron James was crowned with the MVP title of the tournament. Soon after that, Bayless stirred controversy by posting on social media that LeBron should not win the MVP title. Rather, the sports analyst sees Curry as the real winner of the title.
“I’M SORRY, NOW THERE’S NO WAY LEBRON IS MVP. IT HAS TO BE STEPH. 17 THREES IN THE SEMI AND THE FINAL. WE WOULD NOT HAVE WON EITHER WITHOUT HIM,” Bayless wrote in an X post.
Curry scored 24 points in the final game against France. With his outstanding shooting skills, the Warriors star hit eight three-pointers, three of which came in the closing minutes of the fourth quarter. On the other hand, James contributed 14 points and 10 assists and shot an impressive 60% from the field.
