Shedeur Sanders knows that there will be an intense quarterback competition on the way into Cleveland Brown’s training camp this summer and there is no guarantee that he will be backup, so much less start week 1.
But Sanders, elected with election # 144 in this year’s NFL draft, has a target in Cleveland already extended.
He spoke at John Marshall High School in Cleveland, where he said his eyes were firm to hoist a Vince Lombardi trophy and bring it to Cleveland for the first time in the franchise history.

“I just wanted to come out and see you,” Sanders students told John Marshall. “We train every day. We have a purpose. We have something we are trying to achieve and achieve.

“What inspires me to continue? I always say to know that I have got a lot of people looking at me. Know that I am a positive influence on the youth. That’s what I say keeps me going.”
