Deshaun Watson's first game since 2024 a success because he wasn't as bad as Shedeur Sanders or Dillon Gabriel

We've all heard the joke about being in the woods with a friend and being chased by a bear, right? It's not necessary to be faster than the bear. It's necessary to be faster than the friend. That definitely applied to Deshaun Watson on Saturday in his first NFL action since 2024.

This was a grand success for Watson because he got on the field in a preseason game against the Chicago Bears (funny how that ties in) and he outran Shedeur Sanders and Dillon Gabriel in fleeing the bear.

No, Watson wasn't great in his one half of play.
