"The Baltimore Ravens were planning to draft Shedeur Sanders in the fifth round with the No. 141 overall pick, league sources told ESPN. But before the Ravens could turn in the card, the former Colorado star let it be known to Baltimore that he didn't want to be on a roster with Lamar Jackson, where he wouldn't have a chance to play anytime soon, according to league sources."
"Sanders currently is listed third on the depth chart -- behind Joe Flacco and fellow rookie Dillon Gabriel -- with the Browns, who had a more crowded quarterback room throughout training camp and the preseason. But Kenny Pickett was traded to the Las Vegas Raiders and Tyler Huntley was released last month, clearing a path for Sanders to make Cleveland's 53-man roster."
The Baltimore Ravens intended to draft Shedeur Sanders at No. 141 but Sanders made clear he did not want to join a roster where Lamar Jackson remained the entrenched starter. Baltimore instead selected offensive lineman Carson Vinson at 141. Three picks later, the Cleveland Browns chose Sanders at No. 144. Sanders entered Cleveland behind Joe Flacco and rookie Dillon Gabriel on the depth chart, though recent roster moves opened a clearer path to the 53-man roster. Sanders showed promise in his preseason debut, missed a game with an oblique injury, and was sacked five times in the finale.
