Shedeur Sanders faces fight for starting job with Browns ahead of preseason

Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders competes for the starting position as the team prepares for their second preseason game this Saturday. Coming off a mixed performance in 2025, Sanders will share time with Deshaun Watson and Dillon Gabriel to prove his viability. Former Super Bowl champion Greg Jennings stated that Sanders appears to be on a short leash, needing strong performances to secure his place. During his rookie season, Sanders threw for 1,400 yards but struggled with a low impact rating. The Browns have not reached the playoffs in two seasons, raising the stakes for Sanders and the team's upcoming season opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars on September 13.
