The Browns are officially in the Shedeur Sanders era. The much-discussed fifth-round pick out of Colorado was pressed into duty this past Sunday when starter Dillon Gabriel suffered a concussion. On Wednesday, coach Kevin Stefanski confirmed Gabriel was still recovering and would be out for Cleveland’s next game against the Raiders in Las Vegas—which means Sanders gets the starting nod for the first time in his young career.
It’s anybody’s guess how it will go. Sanders struggled mightily in relief of Gabriel against the Ravens. But he’ll enjoy a week to prepare for Vegas and will practice with the starters for the first time. On top of all that the Raiders are nearly as bad as the Browns record-wise and put up very little resistance against the Cowboys on Monday night.
