Availability

Fantasy Impact
Sanders was able to move the ball effectively in the first quarter, including a 28-yard touchdown pass to Harold Fannin. The Steelers' offense was unable to capitalize on the two interceptions thrown my Sanders. Sanders and the Browns will take on the Bengals in Week 18.
Shedeur Sanders completed 20-of-29 passes for 157 yards with a touchdown and two picks in the Browns' 23-20 loss to the Bills. He also showed off some mobility with 49 rushing yards on four carries.
Fantasy Impact
Sanders briefly left the game with a cut on his pinkie on his throwing hand, but was quickly patched up and back in the game. It wasn't his best performance, but surprisingly, he was only sacked twice against a Bills defense that was constantly pressuring him. He kept the Browns in the game, but ultimately could not come through for the win. He will get Pittsburgh next week.

Fantasy Impact
It doesn’t appear that Sanders suffered a major injury, but it was a bad cut. He should be able to be patched up and sent back out, but his status will need to be monitored.
Shedeur Sanders completed 18-of-35 pass attempts for 177 yards and three interceptions while also rushing twice for a team-high 24 yards in the Browns' 31-3 Week 15 loss to the Bears.
Fantasy Impact
Sanders struggled against a stout Chicago defensive front, failing to reach the end zone for the first time in his last four games for the Browns. The rookie signal-caller remains best left out of lineups ahead of a Week 16 matchup against the Buffalo Bills.
Shedeur Sanders will be the Browns starting quarterback for the remainder of the season, per HC Kevin Stefanski. He said his play has “constantly and consistently gotten better.”
Fantasy Impact
Sanders put up over 300 yards in the Browns loss to the Titans on Sunday in what should have been a win if the offense was able to move the ball like that. Instead, the defense let him down. Sanders has shown a lot of improvement to his game since taking over as starter, and if he plays well enough he might play his way into the starting job for 2026. But we still have a ways to go.
