Overview

• The fifth‑round pick is third on Cleveland’s depth chart behind Joe Flacco and Dillon Gabriel and is inactive on game days under the emergency‑QB designation.
• Team insiders say the Browns prefer a veteran presence for a tough upcoming slate, indicating Flacco is likely to continue starting over the next few weeks.
• Sanders told cleveland.com he embraces scout‑team duties as his weekly 'gameday' and said he is ready for an opportunity when it comes.
• ESPN reporting said the Ravens planned to draft Sanders before he told them not to select him, a decision Cam Newton publicly framed as a smart business move given Lamar Jackson and Jalen Hurts’ entrenched roles.
• Outside analysts have floated potential trade destinations such as the Steelers and Saints, which remain speculative scenarios rather than active negotiations.
