Questions are waiting to be answered for the Cleveland Browns even after just defeating the San Francisco 49ers in Week 6.

Folks are interested to see if quarterback Deshaun Watson can return from injury in Week 7 at the Indianapolis Colts after missing the last two games, which came before and after the bye week. Watson injured his shoulder in Week 3 against the Tennessee Titans, it was revealed to be a bruised rotator cuff.

Head coach Kevin Stefanski provided an update on Watson heading into Week 7.

"Deshaun's continuing his rehab. He's day-to-day,” said Stefanski on Monday. “We'll know more as the week progresses. He's working through his rehab which does include throwing."

Last week Watson was called ‘day-to-day’ as well but did not practice all week. He continues to work back from the injury which could take anywhere from 2-6 weeks to recover. The question on whether or not he will play at the Colts will be more clear as the week goes on.

When asked about national reports saying that Watson could be back against the Colts, Stefanski objected.

"I don't pay attention to reports. I'm day to day."

The Browns have always played injuries internally under this regimen for the most part. It is no surprise that their franchise player with a fully guaranteed contract is being handled carefully.
