Shedeur Sanders has officially gotten reps in an NFL practice. The fifth round draft pick has been practicing all week with all the other rookies in Cleveland. While the draft didn’t go the way he expected, he knows that his on-field play will do more talking than anything else.
That, however, hasn’t stopped him from speaking out to whatever media will listen.

At this point, Sanders can only look back on his time at Colorado and concentrate on the NFL. There is no doubt that Sanders will do everything he can to prove the doubters wrong:
Speaking to the team about what he wants to accomplish in the crowded Browns quarterback room, Sanders said he wants fans to feel like they have hope and a chance to win.
“I feel like the Browns fans, they just want something to hope for and they’ve been wanting it so long and long,” Shedeur Sanders told the team website. “And finally, I’m here to change that, I’m here to actually get what they want.”
Sanders made it clear that he wants to win and that his focus is on getting the job done for Cleveland.
“I’m here to work and win,” Sanders said.
“I think everything off the field, that’s going to handle itself. On the field, of course, that’s where I want my personality, and that’s what I want to be known for, is the one that came here and changed the franchise.”

Sanders and the rest of the Browns’ draft class wrapped up rookie minicamp over the weekend, officially beginning the offseason slate for Cleveland’s group of rookies and undrafted hopefuls.
Former Colorado Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders and former Oregon Ducks quarterback Dillon Gabriel have overtaken the NFL and Cleveland Browns fan base.
The hype for Sanders is off the charts, creating unprecedented media coverage.
Cleveland Browns insider Tony Grossi offered a notable evaluation of the rookies. During recent workouts, he singled out Gabriel as the more impressive of the two.
“I thought, both days, Dillon Gabriel looked a little bit better,” Grossi said.
“He throws a tight spiral. He throws a beautiful ball, he’s very assertive, he knows the pocket. You could tell that even though they’re not rushing. He just has a pocket presence.”
