Overview

• Shedeur Sanders asked his father, Hall of Famer Deion Sanders, not to attend Cleveland’s training camp to avoid exposing his three- to four-rep practice sessions.
• The rookie sits behind Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett and fellow rookie Dillon Gabriel, and has seen only third- and fourth-team work in camp.
• Head coach Kevin Stefanski praised Sanders’s work ethic but has withheld any first-string reps, leaving his role contingent on earned performance.
• Kenny Pickett’s hamstring injury could shift more practice reps toward the lower-unit quarterbacks, offering Sanders additional chances to impress.
• Deion Sanders, now cancer-free after a May bladder removal, has publicly supported his son’s bid but respected his request to stay away from camp.
