STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Sanders loses starting role to Watson despite tight competition; potential trade candidate.

Shedeur Sanders lost the starting QB competition to Deshaun Watson for 2026. The source notes Monken will say nice things about Sanders and acknowledge he made the competition tight throughout the process, but the veteran Watson was ultimately chosen. Potential factors cited include easier transition from veteran to youngster than vice versa, possible trade interest in Sanders, and Sanders deferring to Watson to start the season.
