Las Vegas an Appropriate Setting for Browns' Sanders to Make 1st Career Start
Shedeur Sanders will start for Cleveland Browns due to Dillon Gabriel's concussion, entering as the 42nd Browns starting QB since 1999, facing a strong Raiders defense.
- On Wednesday, Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders will make his first NFL start Sunday at 4:05 p.m. EST in Las Vegas, replacing Dillon Gabriel who is in concussion protocol.
- After getting first‑team snaps this week, Sanders earned the start over other options as Dillon Gabriel entered concussion protocol, and coaches reinforced Sanders' prep with one‑on‑ones and a Rees‑designed plan.
- Facing Maxx Crosby's recent surge—four sacks in five games—presents a notable challenge for rookie Shedeur Sanders, whose Week 11 game line was 4 of 16 for 47 yards and an interception.
- Sanders' start carries roster implications, potentially determining the Browns' QB going forward as he would be the 13th starter under Kevin Stefanski and 42nd since 1999; coaches and Sanders say wins could cement his claim to the job.
- With the Raiders leading 18‑10 and winning 20‑16 in Las Vegas on Sept. 24, 2024, the series favors Las Vegas historically, adding pressure to Sanders' debut.
