Deshaun Watson cleared, but won't start...interesting

The Browns announced their final roster moves ahead of Sunday's matchup with the New Orleans Saints and the most notable news was that Deshaun Watson had actually cleared the concussion protocol on Saturday but would remain questionable. 

Todd Monken obviously shared that Shedeur Sanders would start this weekend and noted that a QB missing practice time and playing after clearing the protocol one day before kickoff was an uphill battle. 

Between those strategic challenges and in an effort too look out for Watson's best interests, he didn't want to force the issue and maybe he'll still be active as a backup. Still, if this was one of the leagues top guys (Allen, Mahomes, Burrow, etc) wouldn't they play? Just a thought.
