CLEVELAND — Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson suffered an Achilles tendon injury that is likely season-ending in the first half of Cleveland's 21-14 loss to Cincinnati. Watson's leg crumpled on a non-contact play as he dropped back to pass with 1:26 left before halftime. He covered his head with a towel as he was carted off the field. Meanwhile, Joe Burrow got his first road win against the Bengals' in-state AFC North rival on Sunday. Burrow threw two touchdown passes in the third quarter as the Bengals ended a six-game losing streak at Cleveland. Cincinnati has won three of four since dropping three straight to start the season.
