Fantasy Football with Ian Hartitz on Shedeur Sanders

Outperformed Watson in preseason; 74 yards, TD on 9-of-11.

Backup QB who has outperformed Deshaun Watson in preseason play. Ian Hartitz noted Sanders "has obviously not been a great quarterback in his own right" but "has he been better than Deshawn? I would say yes." Sanders delivered a strong preseason showing against Buffalo with clean pocket opportunities; he completed 74 yards and a touchdown on 9-of-11 passing with one interception (ruled a drop by PFF). Hartitz credits Sanders' off-script ability and notes he made the easy plays look easy in his first outing. The decision to start Watson over Sanders is cap-driven rather than performance-based, giving Sanders a potential path to the starting role if Watson struggles.
