Browns' Todd Monken Makes Feelings Clear on Shedeur Sanders Before Saints Game
Shedeur Sanders is getting his shot. See what Todd Monken said about the start and what’s at stake for Sanders and the Browns.
Cleveland Browns quarterback Todd Monken has made it clear he is eager to see rookie Shedeur Sanders take the field against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday. Watson is still in concussion protocol after taking a hit in last Sunday's game, and Monken said it's not clear if he'll even be the backup. Sanders will be starting in his first game since the end of last season.
Monken spoke highly of Sanders, saying it's the opportunity he's been waiting for and that the team isn't holding anything back. The Browns are 5-3 and coming off a loss, while the Saints are 2-5 after their bye. Sanders is the team's fifth-round pick and has had a strong career in college, but this will be his first start of 2026.
A good game could make a strong case for Sanders as the starter for the rest of the season and beyond.
