The Cleveland Browns are grappling with their quarterback situation as they weigh the options of Deshaun Watson and Shedeur Sanders for the upcoming NFL season. Analyst Jake Trotter expressed skepticism about the team's support for Sanders, suggesting that if they truly believed in him, they wouldn't be considering Watson as a starter. Trotter pointed out the inconsistency in the team's messaging, indicating that the ongoing speculation about Watson starting implies a lack of confidence in Sanders. Meanwhile, veteran analyst Tony Grossi believes that Dillon Gabriel, who previously held the starting position, would be a more suitable backup than Sanders, citing the potential distractions that come with Sanders' media presence. Gabriel had been the starting quarterback until he lost the role to Sanders during the last season, highlighting the competitive dynamics within the Browns' quarterback lineup.
