The Cleveland Browns stole the Friday evening headlines by getting Deshaun Watson to agree to waive his no-trade clause to join the Browns in 2022.
As expected, there was a myriad of emotions about Watson’s arrival in Cleveland given his checkered history of off-the-field issues.
One prevalent theme that did come up was whether beloved wide receiver and fan-favorite Jarvis Landry would return to the Browns now that Watson is on board.

Is It Possible?
To begin with, Landry does not live in a vacuum so he knows about the monumental shift that just happened with the Browns.
He may also be aware of the Twitter movement to get the hashtag #BringBackJuice on the trending list.

Landry remains a free agent.
He visited the Falcons on the same day Watson did.

He may have been waiting to see if Watson ended up in Atlanta.
#Falcons felt they had Deshaun Watson as of this AM. There were even 3 free agents waiting (Jarvis Landry, A.J. Green and possibly Leonard Fournette) who were thinking about joining him. Just an insane situation.

If he has a burning desire to play with Watson, and the Browns offer him a deal, then it could be a great reunion after a brief breakup.
Fans Would Be Ecstatic
Though Watson is big news in Cleveland, he does come with baggage and mixed reactions.
Bringing Landry back would be a slam dunk for a Browns’ front office, who for better or worse, will face scrutiny for this decision.
Landry is the one former player everyone thought about when this news broke.
That says a lot about who he is and what he means to the city of Cleveland and the Browns fanbase.
Conclusion
Landry has been quiet.
Maybe he wants a fresh start away from Cleveland.
We just don’t know.
As with everything that is going on with the Browns, we will have to wait and see how things turn out.
