Browns QB Shedeur Sanders Returns to Practice with Back Injury, Status Undetermined

Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders, who was added to the Week 8 injury report with a back injury and did not serve as the backup for the loss to the Patriots, will practice on Wednesday. However, his participation will be limited, and his status for Sunday's game against the Jets remains undetermined. Coach Kevin Stefanski stated that the team will evaluate Sanders' performance in practice before deciding if he will serve as the backup to starting quarterback Dillon Gabriel for the Week 10 game. Gabriel is confirmed to start, with Sanders or Bailey Zappe filling the second-string role. It is anticipated that Sanders will eventually play to allow the Browns to assess his capabilities at the NFL level.
