Shedeur Sanders is a star already in the making in the Cleveland Browns’ facility. Right from Day 1, he has been building a story rooted in grit and hard work. And that’s also gotten him the debut against the Panthers this preseason on August 8th. Many insiders and analysts already believe he’s well on his way to becoming the Browns’ starter soon. But is a regular-season start also in the works? If yes, analysts have issued some warning signs for Kevin Stefanski.As a reporter had recently stated, “In that building, there are people who believe that Shedeur can 100 percent be the starter of this football team… It’s incumbent upon Shedeur to do the work, which, talking to the people in that building, they’ve said he is soaking up everything like a sponge.” Shedeur Sanders continues to put in the effort and soak up exp points from Joe Flacco and Kenny Pickett. And word around the league is he might also become the Week 1 starter for the regular season matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. But not everybody is onboard with that idea.On the Ken Carman Show with Anthony Lima podcast, the two got into a heated argument over the prospects of Shedeur Sanders. Carman put it simply as, “I think it would be a disastrous move to make him the Week 1 starter.” But this did not go over well with Lima as he added his take, “If he leapfrogs Joe Flacco, who’s on this team when they went to the playoffs the other year, if he leapfrogs the guys they gave up assets for, that they took ahead of him, then it becomes like ‘alright, this guy’s undeniable,’ why would you put a stop sign for that?” Lima was, of course, referencing Dillon Gabriel, whom the Browns took in the 3rd round this year as the 94th overall pick. The Browns had acquired this pick earlier by trading Amari Cooper to the Buffalo Bills.”I want him to have a chance to succeed… I want what’s best for Shedeur Sanders. Starting him week 1 would be a reckless thing to do.”@KenCarman clarifies his stance on Shedeur Sanders and the possibility of him starting week 1: https://t.co/xIwfp8BTmV https://t.co/dsMTcYUR67 pic.twitter.com/kGMAmOAW1a— 92.3 The Fan (@923TheFan) June 6, 2025Ken Carman further doubled down and said he’s all for Shedeur Sanders, but the prospect of him starting the regular season seemed “reckless.” As Carman put it, “I want him to have a chance to succeed. It is too much, too soon. He seems like a good young kid – I want what’s best for Shedeur Sanders, and starting him week 1 in all against the Cincinnati Bengals is reckless.” While Sanders certainly has the potential to start under center, Carman believes it would be better to get some more experience watching Joe Flacco and Kenny Pickett play. But Sanders is already doing that. And as he continues to develop, his minicamp performances are showing a lot of promise.Shedeur Sanders’ minicamp journeyShedeur Sanders joined the Browns with a mission to prove himself right. Last one to leave the field, a “locker room favorite,” he’s well on his way to rising through the ranks. Even OC Tommy Rees was all praises for Sanders recently. As Rees put it, “He’s worked his tail off. – You can tell the mental side of the game, learning the system, calling it, having that rhythm to it… He’s put a lot of work and time and effort into that. And when you do that, the game starts to slow down and you can focus on finding completions.” And Sanders, working “his tail off,” has already started to show results.NFL, American Football Herren, USA Cleveland Browns Rookie Minicamp May 10, 2025 Berea, OH, USA Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders 12 throws a pass during rookie minicamp at CrossCountry Mortgage Campus.
