Shedeur Sanders Says 'I Don't Really Care' About Browns QB Depth Chart After NFL Debut

Shedeur Sanders wasn't worried about his spot on the Cleveland Browns' quarterback depth chart after making his NFL preseason debut on Friday.

"I honestly don't know and I don't really care," Sanders said. "Whenever it's my turn I just gotta take advantage of it."

Sanders finished 14-of-23 for 138 yards and two touchdowns without tossing an interception during Cleveland's 30-10 win over the Carolina Panthers.

He was previously listed as the Browns' No. 4 quarterback on their first unofficial depth chart.

Sanders took a bit of time to get comfortable against Carolina, completing just 50 percent of his throws for 33 yards in the first quarter. He then found Kaden Davis for a touchdown early in the second and didn't look back, going 9-of-13 for 105 yards during the rest of the game.

Sanders didn't finish the contest, as he was replaced by Tyler Huntley in the third quarter.

It was an impressive debut from the fifth-round rookie, especially since Carolina opened the game with its first-team defense on the field. Sanders is competing for Cleveland's Week 1 starting spot with Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett and fellow first-year passer Dillon Gabriel.

Flacco seems to be the top candidate to start in the regular season, but a strong preseason performance from the other signal-callers could sway head coach Kevin Stefanski's final decision. Gabriel and Pickett didn't suit up on Friday due to hamstring injuries.

Sanders will look to keep building momentum in Cleveland's next preseason clash, a matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles on Aug. 16.
