Cleveland Browns legend weighs in on Shedeur Sanders’ situation

Article arrow_drop_down

The Cleveland Browns find themselves in an all-too-familiar situation: uncertainty at the quarterback position.

After an offseason clouded by Myles Garrett‘s trade request and the injury to starter Deshaun Watson, the franchise is in scramble mode. As they prepare for the 2025 season, head coach Kevin Stefanski is juggling a crowded quarterback room with no clear frontrunner for the starting role.

Among the contenders is rookie Shedeur Sanders, son of NFL Hall of Famer Deion Sanders. Although Sanders is receiving praise for his demeanor and preparation, he’s part of a larger dilemma for the Browns, who also brought in veteran Joe Flacco, traded for Kenny Pickett, and drafted Dillon Gabriel.

With no consensus starter emerging from this quartet, the Browns’ approach to the position could define not just the 2025 season, but the franchise’s future trajectory.

Bernie Kosar advocates patience with young quarterbacks

Legendary Browns quarterback Bernie Kosar has added his voice to the debate, urging caution when it comes to throwing young signal-callers into the fire too soon.

Appearing on 92.3 The Fan Radio Show, Kosar shared his impressions of Sanders and the rest of the QB room, offering a balanced but thoughtful take.

“I love how he [Sanders] is handling stuff. He’s out here an hour early. That’s working out stuff, and then he’s one of the last guys here signing autographs and all that,” Kosar said, clearly impressed with Sanders’ dedication and maturity.

Kosar didn’t stop with Sanders, he also commended Dillon Gabriel for his sharpness, noting that the Oklahoma product has been “picking up the system” well.

Describing the quarterback competition, Kosar called it “fun to watch,” but also emphasized that a different approach might be necessary for the team’s success and the players’ development.

“We kill more quarterbacks by putting them in there early,” Kosar warned, referencing the franchise’s turbulent quarterback history, including the handling of Baker Mayfield.

He suggested the team might need to “sacrifice” veteran playing time to give rookies a more structured and measured growth period. “A modified approach might be better for the long-term health of the team and the quarterback.”

His words carry weight in Cleveland, where fans remember his role in the team’s last era of sustained success.

With the 2025 preseason looming and no starter named, the Browns face a pivotal decision. Do they lean on Flacco’s experience for short-term results? Or do they let young talent like Sanders and Gabriel grow into the role with reps and patience?

The team’s future could hinge on how they answer that question. And if Kosar’s advice resonates in Berea, it may be Sanders, with his work ethic and quiet determination, who eventually earns the job. Just not before he’s truly ready.

F1 Singapore GP live updates: FP3 latest as Lawson crashes again, qualifying to come at Marina Bay

Between the two red flags — for session-ending crashes from George Russell and Liam Lawson — and the very strange unsafe release incident with Charles Leclerc and Lando Norris (more on that in a moment), second practice in Singapore wasn’t quite as useful to teams as they may have hoped.The lack of time to get in some proper long runs left the teams a step behind their typical preparations, with the added challenge being that today’s final remaining practice takes place in different conditions to both qualifying and tomorrow’s race — basically before the sun has gone down in Singapore. Nevertheless, McLaren will have enjoyed Oscar Piastri topping the session, one-tenth of a second clear of Isack Hadjar who finished a surprise P2 for Racing Bulls. Max Verstappen got third for Red Bull ahead of Fernando Alonso in fourth, continuing […]

We know who we are.”AdvertisementThat may be true, but the world outside the Broncos’ locker room will have a much better idea of what this team is capable of this season following Sunday’s marquee matchup, which precedes a weeklong trip to London for the Broncos ahead of a Week 6 game against the Jets.

Blake Lively surprises Taylor Swift with a gesture of support amid the breakdown of their friendship

Blake Lively appeared to extend an unexpected gesture of goodwill toward Taylor Swift after the launch of her new album, as speculation continues over the breakdown of their once-close friendship. The actress quietly "liked" Swift's Instagram post celebrating the release of The Life of a Showgirl, signaling a possible thaw in their relationship after a tense period full of legal drama.The interaction drew significant attention because it arrived amid rumors that one of Swift's new tracks, "Ruin the Friendship," reflects tension between the two. Online speculation spread rapidly after fans noted parallels between the title and reports of a cooling relationship. However, industry insiders have indicated the song's lyrics, centered on a teenage romance, are unrelated to Lively or their reported fallout as there is no obvious sign of change on the end of the Grammy-winning arist.Swift, 35, marked the […]

Do kabiny přichází první, odchází poslední. Liberec pečuje o fotbalový klenot

Na začátku června Liberec vyhrál bitvu o mladého rakouského reprezentanta do 21 let, jehož získal z Lafnitzu po sestupu ze druhé ligy. „Nebylo snadné ho získat v konkurenci větších a bohatších klubů, ale podařilo se nám hráče přesvědčit díky našemu rychlému jednání a dlouhodobému plánu,“ nepřímo tehdy potvrdil generální ředitel Liberce Jan Nezmar spekulace o velkém zájmu o talentovaného záložníka ze strany Plzně či Sturmu Graz. „Pro Slovan jsem se rozhodl, protože si myslím, že to pro mě teď bude ten nejlepší krok,“ poznamenal Rakušan s bosenskými kořeny, jenž U Nisy podepsal smlouvu do roku 2029.
