Unfortunately, the rookie will have to play the final games <strong>without two key offensive weapons<\/strong> by his side.<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\">The Browns have not had a great 2025 NFL season. Despite their struggles, there is some good news, as <strong>Shedeur Sanders<\/strong>, whom they selected in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, <strong>has shown promise<\/strong> and is <strong>proving his value<\/strong> to the team.<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\">The quarterback has taken over as the starter for the remainder of the season. He is <strong>determined to finish the campaign on a strong note<\/strong> in order to keep the QB1 role in 2026.<\/p>\n<h2>Browns send two offensive players to injured reserve<\/h2>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\">The Cleveland Browns are already thinking about how to approach the 2026 season. While they <strong>no longer have playoff hopes<\/strong>, there are still areas they can work on this year to prepare for the future.<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\">One key area is the offense. The defense remains solid and experienced, but the <strong>offense is now led by a rookie quarterback<\/strong> whom the Browns need to surround with more talent.<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\">Unfortunately, <strong>two players<\/strong> who were expected to <strong>help Shedeur Sanders<\/strong> <strong>will not be available for the final stretch<\/strong> of the season. The Browns confirmed that two offensive weapons will miss the remainder of the year.<\/p>\n<p>see also Kevin Stefanski confirms final decision between Shedeur Sanders and Deshaun Watson after Browns\u2019 loss to Titans<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\">On Tuesday, Cleveland announced that <strong>center Ethan Pocic and running back Jerome Ford<\/strong> were <strong>placed on<\/strong> <strong>injured reserve<\/strong>. With only four games left in the 2025 season, neither will return this year.<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\">While <strong>Ford had already lost the RB1 role to Quinshon Judkins<\/strong>, <strong>Ethan Pocic<\/strong> was the team\u2019s <strong>starting center<\/strong>.
