Shedeur Sanders is no normal fifth-round pick. The rookie quarterback's shocking draft day fall was the talk of the NFL for weeks and his first training camp has taken place under an intense microscope. It turns out interest in the Browns' young signal-caller is widespread even beyond draft gurus and passionate Cleveland fans.
On Wednesday, the NFL announced that Sanders's NFL preseason debut for the Browns against the Panthers ranked as one of the two most-watched preseason games in a decade, alongside Texans-Vikings from the same week. Sanders was named the starter due to injury and threw a pair of touchdown passes.
