By Reed Wallach
The NFL rumor mill is moving quickly with the Cleveland Browns entering the center of it.
The Browns met with Deshaun Watson on Tuesday, signaling that the team is in the market to move on from current starter Baker Mayfield, who also hinted that his time as Cleveland's starting QB could be over.

The Browns, who opened the offseason at +3000 at WynnBET Sportsbook, are now +1800 based on the news that the team may be upgrading at QB from Mayfield to Watson.
Watson sat out all of the 2021 season amidst a trade request from the Houston Texans and 22 lawsuits filed against him alleging sexual assault. Last week, a grand jury in Texas declined to indict him on any charges.
Several other teams, including the Carolina Panthers and New Orleans Saints, met with Watson this week and the Atlanta Falcons are set to meet with him on Wednesday.
