Joe Thomas, acclaimed former Brown, voices firm remarks on the rumored 'Shedeur Sanders cult' following the announcement of the QB depth chart

The Cleveland Browns' rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders finds himself third on the team's depth chart, but this placement is not due to a conspiracy or hidden agenda. The NFL Draft involves 32 teams competing against each other, and there is no collusion to sabotage a player like Sanders.

Shedeur Sanders has expressed a positive outlook on his future with the Browns, despite his current position. He stated that no one can make him feel bad about the blessings he has, and he has been thankful for the opportunity, even in the face of adversity.

The coach of the Browns, Kevin Stefanski, benched Sanders for Tyler Huntley in the two-minute drill during the preseason finale, and the team later named Joe Flacco as their starter and Dillon Gabriel as the No. 2 quarterback following the Kenny Pickett trade to the Raiders.

Sanders has been experiencing "growing pains" and developmental needs that will be addressed during practice. He has faced adversity throughout his career and has learned to block out noise and maintain a positive mindset.

Joe Thomas, a franchise legend for the Cleveland Browns, has offered a strong opinion on how the situation with Sanders is being handled. Thomas suggests that those who believe Sanders should start or play more are overestimating his readiness to lead the Browns to a Super Bowl win. Instead, Thomas believes Sanders has a high ceiling and great potential, but needs time to develop.

Despite being third on the depth chart, Sanders has shown a strong mindset and believes he can handle any adversity. He has expressed gratitude for his family and the blessings he has, and he remains optimistic about his future with the Browns.

Joe Flacco is currently the starting quarterback for the Cleveland Browns, and Dillon Gabriel is the No. 2 quarterback. Sanders' journey with the team will continue as he works on his development and prepares for potential opportunities in the future.
