Cleveland Browns coach Kevin Stefanski did not give a lot of clarity on the future role of Shemer Sanders with the team after the start of the big quarter-Arrière season on Friday evening.
Sanders has become the speech of the world of sport with two passes of touching against the panthers, winning the praise of LeBron James and other Sports stars, including the women’s basketball coach of Caroline Dawn Staley.
But Stefanski did not indicate whether the performance would lead to a promotion on the depth table. Sanders was buried in fourth position behind Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett and Dillon Gabriel.

“We have to spend the next two days from the point of view of injuries and see where everyone is,” Stefanski told journalists on Saturday when he questioned the role of Sanders.
“I really focus on the development of all our quarters and each of these representatives last night, how important they are. So, that’s what I am focused on more than anything.”
Stefanski added that Sanders can “clean” certain aspects of his performance.
“We have a standard for this position and really each position, but certainly the quarter position. There is a standard by which we play and how we play and how we operate and how we take care of football and this type of thing,” said Stefanski.
“There are things that SheDer can clean, he will clean. But, on the whole, I thought that the operation was really good, and it is important when you have different guys in there. … I think it comes back, with Sheder or any player, you maximize your time in the building.”

Stefanski’s comments have aroused criticism of the social networks of fans who believe that Sanders deserves more praise after performance.
“Having Kevin Stefanski rent for rent SheDer and not to rent recruits or QB as a whole, it’s like getting your teeth,” wrote an X user.
Another user wrote: “Stop playing and already call him the starter.”
Sanders criticized his performance on Friday despite the two affected.
“Have I played peer? No, I don’t feel like I did,” said Sanders after the match. “But, overall, the main objective was to win, and it is honestly what we did.
“I’m comfortable being uncomfortable, so that’s what it is.”

Sanders examined if he had a fair blow to win the starting station on Saturday.
“I just don’t think about everything in everything because there is nothing that you will be able to control.” Said Sanders. “The maximum you can do is when you have the opportunity, when your number is called, do, at least, make the strict minimum and win the game. This is what I feel as we have done today and certainly things that I can grow.”
However, Sanders used his big night as an opportunity to target one of his detractors.
In a YouTube video published by his brother, Deion Sanders Jr., Sheder confronted one of the Beat reporters of the Browns, Tony Grossi of Espn, at the Bank of America Stadium. It was not an unpleasant interaction, although Sanders was sarcastic with the journalist.
“Tony, I hope you have something positive to say about me,” said Sanders to Grosi. “You only say negative things about me. And I say to myself:” I don’t do anything to you. “I don’t see anything positive that you ever say.”
Grosi’s response was not audible, although they shared a laugh afterwards.
“What am I doing? What did I do to you?” Said Sanders walking away.
The Browns face the Philadelphia Eagles In their second pre-season match next week, and Stefanski said Sanders would get considerable representatives.
Sanders fell to the 144th choice in the draft of NFL this spring after the scouts raised character problems. He was previously considered a competitor for the first global choice, but slipped after the first four laps of one of the most shocking recovery slides in the history of the NFL, which caused confusion and the debate by many fans of the NFL.

Sanders’ time with the Browns has already involved controversy after being quoted twice for speeding.
Sanders was for the first time for the pretended to have conducted 91 MPH in an area of 65 MPH. Two weeks later, he would have reached 101 MPH in an area of 60 MPH and did not appear before the court.
Browns Managing Director Andrew Berry criticized Sanders for incidents last month.
“Not intelligent. But not intelligent,” Berry told journalists about tickets. “This is something we have addressed with him. Listen, he understands the implications. He understands the consequences. It is not only for you.
