Shedeur Sanders Handed Blunt Reality Check Amid Browns QB Battle originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Shedeur Sanders, the 23-year-old Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback, stole the spotlight in his NFL debut, throwing for 138 yards and two touchdowns in a preseason win over the Carolina Panthers.

The Cleveland Browns still "do not have a lot of clarity" about their quarterback situation with two NFL preseason games in the books, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

The Cleveland Browns had to turn to other quarterbacks with rookie Shedeur Sanders injured. The decisive touchdown came on defense instead of from relief QBs. K.J. Henry returned an interception 45 yards for a score in the third quarter to send the Browns to a 22-13 preseason win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday.

Browns coach Kevin Stefanski plans to identify a starting quarterback for the 2025 regular-season opener "this week," as Cleveland completes the preseason portion of the schedule and shifts its focus to the Sept.
