Shedeur Sanders Throws 1st Career NFL TD Pass on Video in Browns Preseason Debut

Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders threw his first and second career touchdown passes in his preseason debut on Friday during a road game against the Carolina Panthers.

Both touchdowns occurred in the second quarter, and wide receiver Kaden Davis hauled each of them in.

The first play of the second quarter resulted in a seven-yard Davis snag.

Sanders later found Davis for a 12-yarder with 1:04 remaining in the first half.

Sanders finished the first half by completing 11-of-18 passes for 103 yards.

The former Colorado star is looking to make his mark in Cleveland after being selected with a fifth-round pick in the NFL draft.

Sanders was once thought to be a first-round pick, but he stunningly fell through the draft and became a Day 3 choice.

Now he's looking to prove the naysayers wrong. Sanders got off to a solid start Friday, moving the Browns down the field and playing clean, turnover-free football while tossing a pair of scores before halftime.

Sanders will have more opportunities to impress in the preseason with the Browns having two more games on Aug. 16 (at the Philadelphia Eagles) and Aug. 23 (home versus the Los Angeles Rams).
