Shedeur Sanders did something yesterday no Browns quarterback has done in the expansion era, but that doesn’t guarantee another start. In Cleveland’s win over the godawful Raiders, the fifth-round pick became the first Browns quarterback to win his first career start. Full stop. That is the entirety of the accomplishment: he won his first start and did it with the Browns. Every single other quarterback who made their first start with the Browns for the past few decades lost.
Shedeur Sanders just became the first Browns QB since Eric Zeier in 1995 to win his first career NFL start, snapping a 17-game losing streak.
