Browns' Todd Monken Fires Back at Reporter Over Shedeur Sanders Question

Todd Monken fired back at a reporter while talking about the Browns' QB competition between Shedeur Sanders and Deshaun Watson.

Cleveland Browns head coach Todd Monken responded sharply to a reporter's question about his decision-making process for selecting a starting quarterback. The competition is between rookie Shedeur Sanders and veteran Deshaun Watson. Monken clarified that he did not claim one player was superior to the other, stating that each player excels in different areas.

Sanders, drafted in the fifth round last year, started seven games last season, tallying a 3-4 record. Watson, a three-time Pro Bowl selection, had to wait until recovering from injury before joining the competition. Monken intends to rotate the two quarterbacks in preseason games, but won't determine the regular-season starter until after those two games.
