On Sunday, during the Cleveland Browns’ and Cincinnati Bengals’ Week 7 matchup, quarterback Deshaun Watson ruptured his Achilles and had to be carted off the field immediately.
However, the worst part is that Browns fans were reportedly caught cheering that their quarterback had gotten hurt.

Browns fans were not happy, being forced to watch Watson be the starter every week. Cheering when a player gets injured is frowned upon, no matter the situation.
Deshaun Watson Is Going To Miss Some Time
A ruptured Achilles is no joke, and Watson must be sidelined for a long time.
The severity of the injury still needs to be examined, but according to Medline Plus, an Achilles rupture can take four to six months to recover from.
If that is the case, the Browns would likely shut Watson down for the rest of the year and use backups Jameis Winston and Dorian Thomson-Robinson.
