The CrossCountry Mortgage Campus, the Cleveland Browns’ training facility, is completely paralyzed. Shedeur Sanders was the main attraction on the first day of the mandatory minicamp for veterans, standing out in multiple ways-both on the field and with the media.
Shedeur Sanders is fighting against all odds. It’s worth remembering that the highly publicized quarterback was once projected to be selected in the first round of the past NFL Draft. However, it’s still unclear whether teams passed on him intentionally to avoid what is now happening in Cleveland. The Browns selected the son of Deion Sanders in the fifth round.
During the OTAs and now in minicamp, quarterback Shedeur Sanders has looked good. Even though the road ahead still appears very long, the product of the University of Colorado is giving his all as he competes against Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett, Dillon Gabriel, and perhaps even his own demons.
Shedeur Sanders throws a perfect pass
The standout of the first day of minicamp during a 7-on-7 drill was Shedeur Sanders, who threw a perfect pass to wide receiver Gage Larvadain. Larvadain had no trouble reaching the end zone, and the play quickly became a trending topic on the Cleveland Browns’ social media.
Cleveland Browns Head Coach Kevin Stefanski stated that 7-on-7 drills are beneficial for quarterbacks, as they help them get used to the pocket-an essential aspect for successful passing attempts.
“We’re just trying to give them a little more visual reference,” Stefanski said. “This is just one method we consider valuable, and it’s also useful for our offensive line because they can work on their stunts and plays during that time.”
Rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel, from the Oregon Ducks, also had his opportunity and completed a good pass to the Browns’ star receiver, Jerry Jeudy.
So, the competition at the Browns’ camp will continue to grow-especially in intensity. But for now, rookies Shedeur Sanders and Dillon Gabriel are doing their job and will keep competing in pursuit of the ultimate goal.
