Shedeur Sanders Wins First NFL Start as Browns Overwhelm Raiders

Coach Kevin Stefanski left next week’s quarterback decision open pending Dillon Gabriel’s concussion status.

Overview

  • Sanders went 11-of-20 for 209 yards with one touchdown and one interception in Cleveland’s 24-10 Week 12 win in Las Vegas.
  • His first NFL touchdown came on a short throw that Dylan Sampson turned into a 66-yard score, and he hit Isaiah Bond for a 53-yard completion.
  • The win made Sanders the first Browns quarterback since the franchise’s 1999 return to win his first career start, ending a long skid in such games.
  • Cleveland’s defense recorded 10 sacks, and Myles Garrett pushed his single-season franchise record to 18 after a three-sack performance.
  • Stefanski declined to name a Week 13 starter with Gabriel still in the concussion protocol, and Sanders told critics, “A lot of people want to see me fail. It ain’t gonna happen.”
