Hall of Famer Kurt Warner criticized the Cleveland Browns after rookie quarterbacks, including Shedeur Sanders, who faced heavy pressure in the preseason finale, warning that poor handling could stunt their development.

Griffin pointed out that Sanders’ struggles came when he was surrounded by players unlikely to make the roster. By contrast, when Sanders had higher-caliber teammates on the field earlier in the preseason, he threw two touchdowns and thrived in front of the largest preseason crowd in more than a decade.
