Summary

Cleveland Browns head coach Todd Monken confirmed that Shedeur Sanders will start in Week 2 of the preseason against the Buffalo Bills, following his performance against the Chicago Bears. In that game, Sanders played with the backups, completing 6 of 11 passes for 79 yards and one interception. Deshaun Watson started the game and completed 11 of 15 passes for 126 yards without a touchdown.
