After a stellar preseason debut, Shedeur Sanders pushed back against criticism, with a request for positivity, and receive it, even as Myles Garrett challenged him to reach higher. Shedeur Sanders’ preseason introduction was more than just stats, it was a statement. He demanded positivity, earned it, and fielded expectations with humility. With pundits warming up to him and veterans like Garrett pushing for more, Sanders’ rookie season might just unfold into a defining journey.
Colorado Buffaloes celebrate Shedeur Sanders’ first NFL touchdown in “legendary” fashion
Shedeur Sanders calls out the criticism and banks some positivity
During the Browns’ 30-10 preseason win over the Panthers, rookie QB Shedeur Sanders delivered a standout performance: 14 of 23 passing for 138 yards and two touchdowns. But what captured headlines was a postgame tunnel exchange with veteran beat reporter Tony Grossi. Sanders playfully confronted him:
Tony, I be hoping you got something positive to say about me. You only say negative stuff about me…I ain’t done nothing to you…what’d I do to you?
Tha moment humanized Sanders, revealing not just a wannabe star, but someone craving affirmation amid pressure and skepticism. The narrative flipped soon after: Grossi took to X, praising Sanders’ debut and remarking, “He put the pressure on QB2 Kenny Pickett and QB3 Dillon Gabriel to get healthy and perform next week”.
Myles Garrett salutes, but demands a sharper edge
While Sanders’ debut was encouraging, Browns defensive anchor Myles Garrett tempered the applause with a serving of realism. He acknowledged the rookie’s bright start, but was a quick to note it wasn’t flawless. Garrett pointed out misreads, timing issues, and two sacks as areas needing refinement.
Sanders doesn’t shy from critique either, after the game he admitted, “Did I play up to par? No, I don’t feel like I did”. That kind of self-awareness sets a foundation for growth and resilience.
