It is not difficult for a team to cut a fifth-round pick. Sanders has his work cut out for him to make the roster and then to find playing time. He has three talented quarterbacks on the roster alongside him, and Deshaun Watson is still under contract for two more years as well.

Rookie Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders has paid both of his speeding tickets and addressed the incidents at David Njoku's celebrity softball game.

The Browns take on Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals on Sept. 7 to open the NFL regular season. That's about two-and-a-half months for either Sanders or the former Oregon star Gabriel to win the starting gig. Long-term, it makes sense for the Browns to give one of them the job and see if they can sink or swim.
