The Cleveland Browns completed their first week of the preseason including a joint practice as well as an exhibition game with the Carolina Panthers. The Browns defeated the Panthers decisively in their preseason led by Shedeur Sanders in a strong preseason debut.
The Browns had their starters do their work in the joint practice on Wednesday with the Panthers. Some starters and key contributors did play a small amount of reps before the twos and threes carried the effort.
Shedeur Sanders led the Browns to three touchdown drives. He threw a pair of touchdown passes for Kaden Davis. His impressive performance has led to plenty of speculation about what that will mean. Some think this vaults Sanders up the depth chart, putting him in contention for the starting job and a chance to open the season against the Cincinnati Bengals. Others are more measured, making the case this should get Sanders more reps with the ones. The debut was good enough in their mind that Sanders should be afforded the opportunity to test his limits.
How do the Browns feel about the situation? What's the truth? Here's what theOBR has learned about the plans for the Browns moving forward with Sanders as well as other notes on the quarterback position and a few other areas. There's plenty of information fans do not want to miss.
