Shedeur Sanders will remain on the Brownsā roster after the team decided to carry four quarterbacks into the start of the regular season. Despite this, Kevin Stefanski continues to face criticism from various national media outlets for allegedly sabotaging the development of his star rookie.
The latest controversy arose in the preseason game against the Rams when the Cleveland Browns were trailing 17-16 and Shedeur had the opportunity to lead a two-minute drill to win. However, Stefanski chose to put in Tyler Huntley, who, by the way, wonāt even remain with the team. They ended up with a 19-17 victory.
This was the head coachās explanation for his decision. āNothing more than I decided to give Tyler some work at the end of the game. I donāt concern myself with outside type of things, but, you know, Iām committed to his development just like all of our rookies. So, weāll continue to focus on getting our guys better and thatās what weāll stay committed to. Thatās whatās important to me.ā
Will Shedeur Sanders play for the Browns in the start of the 2025 season?
No. Shedeur Sanders will not play for the Browns at the start of the season against the Cincinnati Bengals, as Joe Flacco will be in charge of leading Kevin Stefanskiās offense.
What matters for Sanders in the next two weeks will be determining whether, thanks to his performance, he can win the backup job over Kenny Pickett and Dillon Gabriel. That would be a massive improvement with the team.
