Cleveland Browns weigh trade options for quarterback Shedeur Sanders
Cleveland Browns officials are reportedly listening to trade offers for second‑year quarterback Shedeur Sanders ahead of the upcoming training camp. Sanders is in a competition with veteran Deshaun Watson for the starting role, while Dillon Gabriel and rookie Taylen Green also remain on the depth chart. Sources say the Browns would consider offers if Sanders does not secure the starting job, potentially using his value to acquire additional draft capital.
A separate trade rumor has surfaced linking Sanders to the Jacksonville Jaguars, where he would serve as a backup to Trevor Lawrence and reunite with former Colorado teammate Travis Hunter. The Jaguars, who lack a clear long‑term backup, could benefit from Sanders' starting experience and low‑cost contract. The two clubs have a recent history of player exchanges, including the 2025 draft trade that sent Jacksonville’s pick for Colorado wide receiver Travis Hunter to Cleveland and subsequent cornerback swaps.
Browns coach Todd Monken affirmed that the quarterback battle is still ongoing and that no immediate trade is imminent. The organization appears focused on evaluating the competition before making any roster decisions.
