if the browns didn't give him that kind of money, he wouldn't have gone to the browns. the low 2022 base salary and full guarantee (including if suspended) allowed the browns to give up less to the texans in draft picks/players to get him.

Is he worth that money? probably not, and the PR will have some impact on browns' revenue, but if he wins 12 games... it'll be a win for them financially and the fans will start caring about his issues a lot less (see Barry Bonds, etc).
