Shedeur Sanders will start at quarterback Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers, Cleveland Browns coach Kevin Stefanski announced Monday. Sanders will remain the starter even though Dillon Gabriel has cleared the concussion protocol, Stefanski said. With Gabriel sidelined, Sanders completed 11 of 20 passes for 209 yards with one touchdown and an interception in the Browns' 24-10 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday in his first NFL start.
Given reports early Saturday morning suggesting that the Falcons will sit their injured quarterback Michael Penix in favor of veteran Kirk Cousins, the intrigue shot through the roof for this Dolphins game. Should Cousins step in for Penix, who is questionable for the game with a bone bruise in his knee, it'll be interesting to see how this impacts the team's passing game.
