Shedeur Sanders throws for 297 yards in Week 9 against Saints
Summary

Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders completed 19 of 31 passes for 297 yards, two touchdowns, and no interceptions in Week 9 against the New Orleans Saints. Sanders also contributed with 28 rushing yards on 10 carries. He stepped in for Deshaun Watson, who was ruled out due to concussion protocol following a helmet-to-helmet hit earlier in the week. Despite a solid performance, Sanders' status as a low-end QB2 remains, with concerns about the effectiveness of his passing largely tied to receiver adjustments and yards after the catch.
