Shedeur Sanders is in the midst of trying to prove that he is the long-term answer at quarterback for the Browns. His next test arrived on Sunday in the form of a visiting Bills team for Cleveland’s Week 16 matchup. While the rookie quarterback started strong he suffered a bloody hand injury in the second quarter that took him out of the game.
Sanders began the day by leading the Browns on an opening touchdown drive by completing five passes, the final to fellow standout rookie Harold Fannin Jr. for six points. The second drive of the day didn’t go nearly as well; Sanders was intercepted after running back Quinshon Judkins let a pass bounce off his chest and into the air. Undeterred, Sanders led Cleveland down to Buffalo’s goal line on his third possession before the injury bug struck.
