Sanders' Vegas Debut: Browns QB Faces Raiders
21 Nov
Summary
- Shedeur Sanders makes his first NFL start for the Browns.
- He previously played for his father at Colorado and Jackson State.
- Myles Garrett eyes sacks record in the same game.
Shedeur Sanders is set to make his first NFL start for the Cleveland Browns, facing the Las Vegas Raiders in a matchup of struggling teams. Sanders, who previously played under his father, Deion Sanders, at Colorado and Jackson State, has expressed a desire to play in Las Vegas. His preparation has been accelerated due to circumstances, and he embraces the pressure.
The Browns have had a challenging quarterback situation this season. After trading veteran QBs, they turned to Dillon Gabriel, who suffered a concussion. This opens the door for Sanders, who had a rough outing in his brief appearance previously. He now has a full week of preparation and first-team snaps.
Adding to the game's intrigue, Browns defensive end Myles Garrett is nearing a significant sack milestone. He has a chance to join elite company if he records sacks against the Raiders. The Raiders' defense, however, is preparing for Sanders' ability to scramble, while also aware of Garrett's dominant pass-rushing.
