Cleveland (AP) — Head coach Cleveland Stefanski defends his decision regarding the development of rookie quarterback Shadur Sanders after his tough performance in the last preseason match against the Los Angeles Rams. Stefanski responded to the criticism that he is supposedly hindering Sanders' progress, when he replaced him with Tyler Huntley, who recently led the team to victory.

Stefanski noted that he is focused on the development of all rookies and does not give significant weight to external criticism. He stated: "We will continue to work on improving our players, and this is important for me."

Sanders, who did not play in the match against Philadelphia due to an injury, has not been able to prove himself on the field during the second timeout, but his performance has not gone unnoticed: he completed 3 of 6 passes for 14 yards and gained five sacks. An important moment was that Stefanski decided not to allow Sanders to attempt a final drive, which sparked criticism among some experts.

After the match, where Sanders showed problems with controlling the game and making decisions, his teammates expressed support, highlighting the potential they see in him. Sanders himself stated that he is not discouraged by the setback, but is ready to work on his shortcomings to improve the game in the future.

General manager of the team Andrew Berry confirmed that the team is satisfied with the four quarterbacks in the roster, and Sanders is considered a promising player for the future. Stefanski also emphasized that for the team it is important not only to win but also to develop young talents.
