# Albert Breer: After Deshaun Watson's efficient win in Tampa, Breer says Watson will keep the Browns' starting quarterback job for now. He also expects both Caleb Williams and Jayden Daniels to land big second contracts despite their injuries, and notes Micah Parsons is at least two games away from returning for Green Bay. **Claimed:** Sep 21, 2026 **Pundit:** Albert Breer — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/pundits/albert-breer **Outlet:** Sports Illustrated — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/outlets/sports-illustrated **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.si.com/nfl/albert-breer-takeaways-browns-deshaun-watson 4 checkable claims — 2 trade and signing calls, 1 availability call and 1 depth chart call — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet. It names 8 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 1 unsettled call enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room. > So, Watson gets to hold on to the job. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Jayden Daniels to move to Washington Commanders** - Kind: Trade and Signing Calls · About: Jayden Daniels, Washington Commanders - Verdict: not settled yet - **Caleb Williams to move to Chicago Bears** - Kind: Trade and Signing Calls · About: Caleb Williams, Chicago Bears - Verdict: not settled yet - **Deshaun Watson to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Deshaun Watson, Cleveland Browns - Verdict: not settled yet - **Green Bay still has two games, at least, until Micah Parsons is back.** - Kind: Availability Calls · About: Micah Parsons, Green Bay Packers - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Jayden Daniels — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/players/jayden-daniels - Washington Commanders — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/commanders - Caleb Williams — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/players/caleb-williams - Chicago Bears — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/bears - Deshaun Watson — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/players/deshaun-watson - Cleveland Browns — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/browns - Micah Parsons — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/players/micah-parsons - Green Bay Packers — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/nfl/teams/packers ## What others said about the same people - Trevor Ripley on Chicago Bears: Ripley picks the Bears to beat the Vikings at Soldier Field in Week 2, 30-19, arguing Minnesota's offense is hobbled by injuries while Chicago's offense edges an aggressive but star-thin Vikings defense. — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/opinions/1fa96607-4b84-4eb4-b501-94ce307ff357 (scored 38.1) - Chris Broussard on Chicago Bears: Brew stood by the Lions as division winners and playoff team, picked the Texans over Cincinnati, the Bears over Minnesota, the Patriots to beat Pittsburgh with a solid Drake Maye game, flagged Jacksonville over Denver as his upset alert, and said he still feels good about the Ravens winning the AFC. — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/opinions/a54915e0-49e6-427b-a7a5-4feb5d0f3cbb (scored 0) - Greg Jennings on Chicago Bears: Jennings put the Cardinals up as his upset alert over Seattle, backed the Texans over Cincinnati and the Bears over Minnesota with chips, put two chips on Denver beating Jacksonville, and wrote a headline of the Packers beating the Jets; he also called the Bengals a playoff team and the Chiefs winners over Indianapolis. — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/opinions/420d3e29-6224-43a2-8d68-b15c864838cd (scored 0) - Danny Parkins on Chicago Bears: Parkins picked the Giants to beat the Rams outright, backed Jacksonville over Denver, Cincinnati over Houston and Chicago over Minnesota in the chips segment, endorsed Buffalo as the AFC's Super Bowl representative, and predicted Deshaun Watson has started his last NFL game. — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/opinions/36d4ede8-3066-4102-abbc-cb08e4544c92 (scored 0) - Tyler Sullivan on Green Bay Packers: Sullivan has Tampa Bay blowing out Cleveland, Green Bay winning narrowly at the Jets, and Philadelphia beating Tennessee by double digits. — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/opinions/d758df3d-dbf8-44e5-b96c-77485489cf0c (scored 100) - Pete Prisco on Chicago Bears: Prisco picks four road/home winners with exact scores: Falcons over Panthers, Bears over Vikings, Jaguars upsetting Broncos, Chargers over Raiders, and Cowboys over Commanders. — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/opinions/49ffcfc9-5f68-4882-a86f-b835b925412d (scored 50) ## More trade and signing calls The same kind of call, about other players and teams. - Brandon Carney on Mike Evans: Carney predicted AJ Brown would not be back with the Eagles, forecast a wave of free-agent landing spots (Breece Hall to the Chiefs, Alec Pierce to the 49ers, Rico Dowdle to the Saints, George Pickens to the Patriots, Mike Evans to the Bills), and named Week 1 starting quarterbacks for several teams in flux.
