When the Cleveland Browns take the field this Thursday night to face the Pittsburgh Steelers, it’ll be the biggest game Deshaun Watson has played in since he joined the franchise in 2022.
After a rough start to the 2026 season, Watson rebounded with strong performances against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Carolina Panthers. He’s completing 68.3% of his passes for 587 yards with five touchdowns and an interception. At 2-1, the Browns legitimately feel optimistic about the rest of the season.
“I’m just really happy for him,” Browns coach Todd Monken told reporters. “Again, the work he’s put in, certainly he knows he can play better. We can certainly coach better around him. And all we’re trying to do is this week, clean up what we can clean up in a short week and be ready to go and be as fresh as we can be for Thursday night, to better put our best foot forward.”

With the Browns and Steelers set to square off on Prime Video, it appears Watson’s wife, Jilly Anais, is going viral on Instagram.
Anais, a model with over 2.3 million Instagram followers, has caused quite a stir with her swimsuit content.
“Perfection,” one fan said.
“Gorgeous Mrs. Watson,” a second fan commented.
Jilly Anais has worked with SI Swimsuit.
In 2024, Watson’s wife had the chance to present Sports Illustrated Swimsuit by walking the in a runway show. One year later, she became a Swim Search finalist for the iconic brand.
“Thank you God! I have been on cloud 9 all week and it’s safe to say I’m never coming down!“ Anais wrote on Instagram. “What an absolute dream to walk in THE [SI Swimsuit] Runway Show! What is life?!?!“
If we had to guess, Watson’s wife will be in attendance for Thursday night’s showdown between the Browns and Steelers.
