Shedeur Sanders to start Browns’ preseason opener against Panthers

Shedeur Sanders, a rookie quarterback for the Cleveland Browns, is set to start the team's preseason opener against the Carolina Panthers on Friday. This announcement comes a day after Sanders was listed as the fourth-string quarterback on the team's unofficial depth chart. The Browns have several quarterback injuries to contend with, as both Kenny Pickett and Dorian Thompson-Robinson are nursing hamstring issues this week. As a result, Sanders and Huntley, a recent free agent signing, are expected to split snaps during the preseason game. The decision to start Sanders in the preseason opener suggests the Browns see potential in the young quarterback and want to evaluate his performance on the field. The game will provide an opportunity for Sanders to make a case for a higher position on the depth chart as the team prepares for the regular season.
