CLEVELAND, Ohio — Shedeur Sanders’ uphill battle to climb the Cleveland Browns quarterback depth chart just got steeper. The rookie quarterback reported arm soreness during individual drills at Saturday’s practice, resulting in the coaching and training staff shutting him down for the remainder of the session.
The timing couldn’t be worse for the fifth-round pick. With joint practices against the Carolina Panthers approaching Wednesday and the first preseason game on Friday, Sanders is at risk of missing his best opportunity to showcase his abilities in game situations.
