Sanders loses QB competition; may need more scheme development time.

Sophomore quarterback lost split-rep competition to Deshaun Watson for Week 1 starter role; speculation suggests if Watson suffers injury or setback in late August, Sanders may need more structural cooking time in the scheme before getting opportunity; Kalshi prediction market priced Sanders at 4¢ (4% chance) of starting Week 1.
