For the first time in his football career, Shidor Sanders He is at the bottom of his team’s depth scheme. However, this does not mean that Cleveland Brown“The rising midfielder does not practice and prepare in the same way.
Sanders, who took Brown in the fifth round of 2025 American Football Association A draft believes that he deals with his position as the fourth unofficial celloter of “Real Well”.
“I would like to say it is just a mentality, this amendment. You have to go and understand the position you were in and be able to get close to that and get the best of it,” Sanders told reporters in the wake of the first mini training in Brown’s first on Tuesday. “You can display things because you do not get representatives in a negative way, or you can see them as, well, when is my time going out there? Let’s be proactive, let’s rely on the warmth and let’s go.
“Therefore, there are no excuses because when you go out there, no one cares about the number of actors you got them whenever you enter the game. No one cares if you take a shot before. Everyone is interested in production. This is the main thing when you go out there: you must be able to produce.”
The next day 2 of Brown Minnesamb on Wednesday, Joe Falaoand Kenny Picky And the rising in the third round Delon Gabriel Divide the representatives of the first team. Sanders’ representatives came during the Offseason program with backup units, but he saw his work burden increasing with a decrease in FLACCO.
In the final to practice on Tuesday, Sanders is associated with Luke Floria On the post -slim road during pressure. Another highlight came during 7 training on 7, when he threw a deep ball on the right margin Eagor Lavadin With the corner Dom Jones In coverage.
Sanders seemed to carry momentum in Wednesday. I statistically outperformed the other three performance of Cleveland, as it informally completed 8 of 9 passes with a decline during the team’s training, According to Espn Cleveland. FlacCo 3 of 7 passes (one landing) completed, Picket 6 out of 11 passes (one -land touch) and completed Gabriel 9 out of 16 passes (two landing), according to the informal statistics of ESPN Cleveland in Wednesday.
SHEDEUR SANDERS lights up early, but there are no representatives in the first team-can he still start as an upward?
Since Sanders, it seemed to be admired during the team’s program outside the season, the Brown coach, Kevin Stefensky, confirmed not to look at the one who gets representatives of the first team and who is not.
“It is a season outside. It’s OTAS, so we will keep the focus there,” Stefski The correspondents said on Wednesday. Once you enter the training camp, of course, you are preparing to play games and finally prepare to play this season. But now, this is not our focus. “
After Wednesday, Sanders were seen putting an additional work, and spent an additional 15 to 20 minutes on passers -by. Another big modification of Sanders is trying to get its progress faster to avoid cysts. Sanders has been dismissed 94 times over his last two seasons in Colorado, and most of them by Gortbebeck in the Football Department, and this contributed to its decrease in the draft.
“It is definitely going through progress, comfort, knowledge of the privacy and generalities of everything. So, when you go to the field, I already have a different kind of confidence in myself, regardless of, adding that when the training camp starts,” I will be there. “
Stefsky said that traffic through progress is the cornerstone of offensive efficiency, but mastery of this skill may take time.
“Be able to overcome progress is not as easy as it seems. Your eyes are studying defenders and seeing what they do, then in the end, you listen to your feet,” Stefski said. “In the words of the old Gary Kubak line,” you have a drop for playing, and this decrease, and those obstacles will take you to where the ball is supposed to go. “
While some Brown fans want to see him begin in the opening match on September 7 against Centuti Benglis – Or shortly after that – Sanders said his goal is to become as polished as possible.
“I got time to be able to grow and mature and be able to understand the privacy and generalities of defenses and to be able to get a good vision from veterinarians in the room,” he said. “So, look at it as an addition. I got time to be able to get a really great understanding. And whenever you know, it’s time for me to play, then it’s time to play.
“But I do not look far away in the future from all of this. I am looking for every day in practice because I had some things that make mistakes there today, as you know, we must go there and correct us, and read the entry and exit a little faster than below the middle. This is the main thing. I focus on the little things, and the passage of time, the big things will happen.”
Brown Mincamp will conclude on Thursday. After that, the team will be broken for more than a month before returning to the training camp in July.
