This story broke overnight and is the lead for Tuesdays edition of Browns Nation news and notes.

ESPNs Kimberley A. Martin reported that Watson is meeting with the Browns on Tuesday.

#Saints and #Panthers may have met with Deshaun Watson already, but dont sleep on CLE.

He met with New Orleans and Carolina on Monday.

Watson has a no-trade clause in his contract.

It is not clear what the Browns will offer.

The Texans are seeking at a minimum three first-round picks in exchange for Watson as reported by Aaron Wilson of Pro Football Network.

The Texans still want a package of three first-round draft picks, other draft capital and players in exchange for Watson. One player that sources predict would likely be part of a potential Saints trade is offensive tackle Ryan Ramczyk

Watson invoked the Fifth Amendment until he was cleared of criminal charges.

Charles Robinson of Yahoo Sports is reporting that Watson will answer questions during a civil deposition on Tuesday morning.

Though it is a closed session, interested NFL teams and the league itself are keeping a close eye on this.

The NFL is reportedly investigating whether Watson violated league policy; a suspension is yet to be defined or determined.

#NFL teams interested in Deshaun Watson are focused on his civil deposition Tuesday, which is expected to proceed without him taking the Fifth in testimony. Teams also believe an #NFL suspension remains possible, despite a grand jury declining indictment. https://t.co/tJNuKFGEFo

Fans are torn about what it would mean if Watson was traded to the Browns.

#Browns Twitter has been vocal on both sides of the issue.

Cleveland sports personality Ken Carman articulated the conflict on the air at Fox 8 on Monday evening.

There are still a lot of other moving parts in free agency.
