The sporting world is buzzing with activity! All eyes are on Las Vegas as rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders prepares for his first NFL start with the Cleveland Browns against the Las Vegas Raiders. This highly anticipated match takes place today, Sunday, Nov. 23, at Allegiant Stadium.
Sanders Under Pressure
With Dillon Gabriel sidelined due to concussion protocol, Sanders, son of NFL Hall of Famer Deion Sanders, steps into the spotlight. The pressure is on, as the Browns have a history of losing debut games with rookie quarterbacks – a streak that stretches back to 1999. Can Sanders break the curse?
Protecting Sanders will be crucial, as the Browns' offensive line faces the formidable Maxx Crosby, the Raiders' elite pass rusher. Crosby has been a defensive powerhouse this season, making this a major challenge for the Browns.
