"The stats Shedeur Sanders put up as a rookie are not what you would expect from a quarterback going to the Pro Bowl. Sanders completed 56.6 percent of his passes and threw for 1,400 yards in his eight games. But he threw more interceptions (10) than touchdowns (7) and posted a 68.1 passer rating to go along with an 18.9 rating in ESPN's QBR metric."
"Kevin Stefanski, then the Browns' head coach, named Shedeur Sanders the starter for the rest of the season beginning with the team's matchup with the Bears on Dec. 14. In that game, Sanders completed 18 of 35 passes, threw three interceptions (no touchdowns), was sacked five times, and fiished the day with a season-low 30.3 passer rating. One of those interceptions comes with a good story from Jaylon Johnson, whose football IQ led him to snag a pick when it was thrown his way."
Shedeur Sanders was added to the Pro Bowl Games roster as a replacement for Drake Maye after New England advanced to Super Bowl LX.
