Myles Garrett Is Getting Dragged Online For Calling Deshaun Watson A “Model Citizen” While Trashing Browns Fans Who Cheered His Injury

In the first half of the Browns-Bengals game, quarterback Deshaun Watson took a few steps back and then tried to take off running when he suddenly collapsed due to a non-contact injury. When Watson was carted off the field, he left with the sound of cheers.

Watson appearing to have suffered a season-ending injury, and fans cheering it on enraged superstar defensive end Myles Garrett.

The reigning Defensive Player of the Year expressed his displeasure with the sequence to reporters after the loss, saying no player deserves that treatment before calling Watson a “model citizen” for “most” of his pro career.

“No one deserves that,” Garrett said. “I’ve seen him work his ass off to get back in here and put a smile on his face. Try to put everything that’s outside the facility behind him. Death threats, people coming to his house, going after his family. No one deserves that… Man does pretty much everything right. He’s been a model citizen through college and most of the pros. He plays the game as hard as anyone I’ve ever seen.”

“We can’t look down on a guy because of any mistakes on the field or anything off the field,” Garrett continued. “We don’t have any moral high ground to look down on a guy.”

Calling Deshaun Watson a model citizen was the only thing fans heard from him, and they proceeded to light him up on social media for stating such a thing.
