BrownsSaturday, November 7
Shedeur Sanders will start at quarterback for the Browns at the Saints on Sunday
The 5AM Parma team
If Sunday means Browns, here's your quarterback: Shedeur Sanders. Todd Monken made it official Friday that Sanders starts in New Orleans while Deshaun Watson is in concussion protocol. Watson returned to practice Friday on a limited basis and is listed questionable. Monken said he took no team reps and isn't sure Watson would be active even if he clears protocol Saturday.
- Kickoff: Sunday, 1 p.m., on 19 News
- Browns record: 5-3, on a 3-game road trip
- If Watson is out as QB2: Dillon Gabriel moves up
- Sanders' last start: 20-18 win over the Bengals
Sanders took every first-team rep Wednesday through Friday. “Let’s go. Let’s see what we’ve got,” Monken said. Last season, Sanders went 3-4 as a starter.
