DESHAUN WATSONQB, CLEVELAND BROWNS

CBS Sports' Josina Anderson reports NFL Disciplinary Officer Sue Robinson is expected to announce her decision on Deshaun Watson's potential suspension "by some time Monday". 

This lines up with a previous report that said the ruling would be delivered early in the week. ProFootballTalk's Mike Florio has stated that the Browns are bracing for an eight-game suspension. If that turns out to be correct, Cleveland would likely stick with backup quarterback Jacoby Brissett as their starter until Watson returns. Brissett is your run-of-the-mill journeyman, averaging 6.4 yards per attempt at a 60 percent completion rate throughout his career. The Browns will hide him behind their prolific running game if he is forced to take the field.

Be at least 1 game...

[rayzor]

He'll be lucky to get just 8 games. 

We'll be lucky if he gets one.

[Ornias]

8 games to a year. He gets paid either way. 

[Snake]

I say year to year and half. They make an example and he plays for the browns now so zero back scratching. 

[TheSpecialJuan]

no games. 

[OneBadCat]

I don’t think he ever plays again.

[kungfoodude]

Probably 8-12 games.

[Panthercougar68]

8-9 what I’m guessing, basically a compromise for half the season.

Deondre Hopkins just got six for PED.  8 seems a wee bit light in comparison.

It needs to be enough to put the season at risk.  Anything short of 8-10 won't get that done.

Zero chance that happens.

Watson had what 24 accusers? Let's say he gets 8 games. Does that mean another player can sexually assault up to three women before he gets a single game suspension? I mean, we've basically established a one game per three women assaulted precedent at that point, right?

The NFL BASELINE for domestic violence is 6 games.

On that standard he should be suspended 8 years.
