The Browns have looked for continued improvement from Sanders, as well as all of their rookies, throughout the first portion of the regular season. Stefanski said he has witnessed the rookies utilizing all available resources in the building to help them through the learning curve that comes with adjusting to the weekly process of an NFL season.
Offensive coordinator Tommy Rees said that he has also seen growth in Sanders' familiarity of the offense.
"I think the level of preparation it takes week-to-week, when you're putting a new game plan together, that's a learning curve for all rookies," Rees said. "So, I think he's gotten more used to that, gotten up to speed, doing a nice job in his preparation and understanding what the game plan holds. And then when he's had his opportunities to go operate it, he's done a nice job. So, again, all of our rookies, we're playing a lot of them, right? We're trying to continue them on an upward trend and see how much they can handle and how to improve them, and he fits in with the rest of the group that way."
