Revamped Write-up:
Hey there! Shedeur Sanders has officially joined a new team!
The Cleveland Browns had their chance to snag him earlier, even picking another quarterback, Dillon Gabriel, in the third round. But it wasn't until the fifth that they got their hands on Sanders, causing a surprising drop in the draft.
Sanders was selected at the 144th overall spot and shared his priceless reaction with his family and brother Shilo Sanders during a livestream on Twitch. To celebrate, the new Browns QB took a cannonball into the family pool!
Now, Sanders comes into a lengthy list of quarterbacks for the Browns. Deshaun Watson, who ruptured his Achilles in the seventh week of last season and might miss the 2025 season, tops the chart. Veteran quarterback Joe Flacco follows, along with Kenny Pickett, who failed to impress in the Steelers draft but was still picked, and the rookie Dillon Gabriel. Now, Sanders, fourth on the list for now, with Watson's injury in mind, seems to be vying for a spot in the lineup.
By the way, did you know that Browns quarterback coach Bill Musgrave used to play with Shedeur's father, Deion, on the 49ers? The two still maintain a friendship today.
Insight: The Cleveland Browns' quarterback depth chart for the 2025 season, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter, is as follows:
- Deshaun Watson (expected starter)
- Joe Flacco (veteran backup)
- Kenny Pickett (primary backup contender)
- Dillon Gabriel (third-round pick, competing for playing time)
- Shedeur Sanders (fifth-round pick, promising young talent)
The depth chart remains fluid as the team gears up for training camp and preseason games. The Browns' quarterback room is generating a lot of buzz due to the intriguing blend of veteran know-how and emerging talent heading into the new season.
- Despite being picked by the Cleveland Browns in the third round, Deshaun Watson, who is recovering from an Achilles injury, is now listed as the expected starter for the 2025 NFL season, as per ESPN's Adam Schefter.
- In the same list, Shedeur Sanders, the fifth-round pick by the Browns, is noted as one of the promising young talents in the team's quarterback room, hoping to secure a spot in the lineup due to Watson's potential absence.
- Interestingly, Sanders shares a unique connection with his quarterback coach, Bill Musgrave, as Musgrave played with Deion Sanders, Shedeur's father, on the San Francisco 49ers.
- In the 2025 American football season, the Cleveland Browns' quarterback depth chart is expected to be a blend of veteran experience with Joe Flacco and emerging talents such as Kenny Pickett, Dillon Gabriel, and the promising rookie Shedeur Sanders, bringing excitement to the team's quarterback room.
