Browns GM Andrew Berry dropped some shocking news in the opening remarks of his season-ending press conference Monday when he revealed that Deshaun Watson — the club’s $230 million man — suffered a setback in his recovery from ruptured Achilles surgery.

The Browns learned about Watson’s new medical situation during player exit meetings on Sunday, and said it’s too early to know what it means going forward.
