Legendary NFL Quarterback 'Bummed' By Browns' Decision On Shedeur Sanders

Browns have their critics

One of the most controversial things the Browns decided to do on Saturday was pull Sanders ahead of the team's final two-minute drill in order to give Tyler Huntley a look.

That drew a reaction from many across the NFL world, including recently retired Pro Bowl quarterback Derek Carr who had this to say on X:

"I need to understand why we don't get to see @ShedeurSanders run this 2 minute drill? Wouldn't you want to see your young QB operate in this situation? Get him more reps for the future? I didn't see the whole game so maybe he already showed enough? Help me understand this…"

Kurt Warner speaks

Carr wasn't the only one to take Stefanski and others to task, however, as two-time MVP and Pro Football Hall of Famer Kurt Warner also expressed disappointment in Cleveland's handling (or mishandling) of their young signal-callers.

Taking to social media, the ex-QB turned NFL Network analyst shared how he wishes Shedeur and Dillon Gabriel had gotten the same opportunities to prove themselves this summer.

"I was really looking forward to the competition between Dillon Gabriel & Shedeur Sanders in last preseason game, I know it plays out like this sometimes, but a bummer that both didn’t have the same opps to make plays!" Warner exclaimed. "DG played well again but had good opps to make plays, SS didn’t those same opps so it was hard to make much of an assessment!"

Clearly the Browns have gone about things in a unique way when it comes to their approach to the position. And it's sounding like they could keep four QBs on the roster heading into Week 1.

Joe Flacco will remain the team's starter for the time being, but right now it's looking like Cleveland will give Gabriel every opportunity to remain ahead of Sanders on the depth chart.
