The Cleveland Browns' minicamp focused on quarterback Deshaun Watson's return to throwing, including participating in 7-on-7 drills. Wide receiver Amari Cooper was notably absent, possibly due to contract issues. Watson expressed comfort with his recovery and praised Cooper, who missed all three days of the camp.
