Dawgs By Nature on Shedeur Sanders
From the article
both Deshaun Watson and Shedeur Sanders struggling throughout OTAs and training camp; HC Todd Monken said one thing before practice about Sanders taking first-team reps and then gave all of them to Watson
STACKED’s take
Sanders' presnap struggles in camp have cost him the QB competition to Watson.
Sanders has struggled throughout OTAs and training camp, losing ground in the QB competition to Deshaun Watson despite many believing the Browns' future would lead to Sanders getting the job. The source notes that while Sanders is 'young, cheap, and has some upside,' his struggles with the presnap process and cadence work—areas HC Monken has prioritized as vital—have cost him first-team reps. Though Sanders would make sense as the starter 'in a vacuum,' his inability to execute the presnap process could negatively impact the development of Cleveland's young offensive core. The decision-makers (GM Andrew Berry and Monken) have made clear that winning and production in 2026 would decide the starter, and Sanders' current performance suggests Watson is the likely choice.
