CLEVELAND (AP) — Deshaun Watson threw two touchdown passes in his second start for Cleveland in five weeks because of a right shoulder injury and the Browns held the Cardinals to just 58 yards in a 27-0 win.
It was Cleveland’s first shutout since 2007.
Watson looked rusty and indecisive at times in his first full game since Sept. 24, when he sustained a strained rotator cuff. He completed 19 of 30 passes for 219 yards — 139 to Amari Cooper.
Cleveland’s defense had a field day against Cardinals rookie quarterback Clayton Tune. The Browns sacked Tune seven times.
