Shedeur Sanders in Line to Start for Browns As Dillon Gabriel Works Back From Concussion​

Shedeur Sanders was thrown into the fire on Sunday, but it looks like he’ll get another shot under center for the Browns.

Shedeur Sanders got his first taste of NFL football on Sunday, and things could have gone better.

After starter Dillon Gabriel was knocked out of action due to a concussion, Sanders took over under center for the Browns while facing off against the Ravens. While he entered the game to quite a bit of fanfare, Sanders was unable to hold Cleveland’s lead, and finished the game 4-of-16 passing with an interception.

While coach Kevin Stefanski made clear after the game that Gabriel would have the starting job back once he cleared concussion protocol, he also acknowledged that there was a lot that needed to happen before Sunday for Gabriel could get back under center. And according to a Monday report from Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com, things are currently lining up for Sanders to get the start against the Raiders in Week 12.

Sanders struggled through the first NFL snaps of his career, but this time he’ll have the advantage of a full week of practice with the team’s starters, which could help him feel a bit more comfortable when he takes the field.

Will be interesting to see what Browns do.. who they start
since old adage is.. player doesn't lose his spot to an injury

Shedeur at least made the game exciting

I'm not a Sanders fanboy, but I think they have to stick with him for at least another game, if just for the sake of protecting Gabriel from the fans. Browns fans in general, are stupid and would be booing Gabriel as soon as he throws an incomplete pass. This is the fanbase that thought Johnny Manziel was a good pick, even though most of us with a brain knew he was a bust waiting to happen. I don't think Gabriel is more than a backup QB in the NFL so they might as well see what Sanders can do. I wouldn't be surprised if Watson is the starting QB at some point by the end of the season.
