The Cleveland Browns season is going from bad to worse. Things got off to an abysmal start Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys when offense, defense, and special teams each struggled in a 33-17 loss that could have easily been even worse.
The team is trying to turn the page and get ready for its contest against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, but things are trending in the wrong direction. Star edge rusher Myles Garrett was unavailable for practice on Thursday due to a foot injury, and that’s not all. Franchise quarterback Deshaun Watson is now facing a new sexual assault lawsuit, and it looks like those who know him personally have had enough of him.
One Twitter user noted that former Browns running back Jordan Wilkins posted an Instagram story in response to a Watson quote alleging that his teammates trust him.
“(Yeah) sure bro,” Wilkins said in the post. “Watch the next slide and yall tell me…and this was the final preseason game to make the roster”
Wilkins’ next post features a clip of the two miscommunicating on a handoff attempt and he claims that the quarterback told Browns coaches that Wilkins didn’t know the play.

Watson’s honeymoon phase in Cleveland is certainly over. Fans are turning on him, and now his former teammates seem to be doing the same.
