A recent insider take suggests Sanders is unlikely to be moved. Browns general manager Andrew Berry is known for bold moves, but several league and team sources indicate it would be surprising if Sanders were traded before the season’s trade deadline. Sanders is on a fifth-round rookie contract for another two-plus years, and Berry is said to have a strong affinity for him, having given him a chance when others passed on him. There is belief in Sanders and his potential, but anything could happen in the coming weeks. Still, the likelihood of a midseason trade appears low, and the team seems committed to Deshaun Watson as the starter for the near term.
Cleveland’s attention remains on the Week 9 matchup with the Baltimore Ravens. The Browns will host a Ravens team that will be without star quarterback Lamar Jackson, though head coach Todd Monken still considers them a tough opponent. He noted that quarterback Tyler Huntley has shown capability and that Baltimore’s success isn’t based on one player. The Browns’ game plan will focus on negating Baltimore’s strengths and pressuring their offense. Cleveland enters as 3-point underdogs.
