The Cleveland Browns’ quarterback competition between Deshaun Watson and Shedeur Sanders is expected to continue into training camp.
“I’m not going to name a No. 1,” head coach Todd Monken said Tuesday, according to Cleveland.com’s Mary Kay Cabot. “I shouldn’t say that. Chances are I will not. Now, once we get to the fall, we’ll have to dissect the reps how we see fit. I just don’t see it after the way Shedeur’s played and the way Deshaun’s played. They both played well enough to earn out the right to compete to start.”
The first-year head coach had previously said he’d like to enter training camp with a defined depth chart. He also said last week that he believes the Browns have “two starting-level quarterbacks” on the roster, per ESPN’s Daniel Oyefusi.
Sanders and Watson have split first-team practice reps during OTAs. Sanders received all the starting reps Tuesday, while Watson will get to work with the top unit Wednesday before the two split reps Thursday.
