You can add another Shedeur Sanders prediction to your list from another NFL insider.

Aditi Kinkhabwala, the CBS sideline reporter who does all of the Browns preseason games as well, thinks the 144th overall pick is heading to an unexpected place.

Kinkhabwala says Sanders will wind up on the practice squad.

"I mean, there's no guarantee (he makes the team)," she said. "And then maybe he's on the practice squad."

Kinkhabwala said she was "stunned" that the Browns picked Sanders after having just picked Dillon Gabriel two rounds earlier.

Cleveland also has healthy QBs Joe Flacco and Kenny Pickett on its roster.

It does make make sense for the Browns to keep Sanders around in some capacity. They stuck their neck out to be the team that ended his NFL Draft free fall.

The practice squad wouldn't be a career-ender for Sanders, who would at least get the chance to continue to prove himself each and every day.

He'd definitely be the highest-profile QB to ever hang out on the practice squad, though.

It'd be frequent questions for coach Kevin Stefanski about the quarterback who wasn't even on Cleveland's active roster.

But it's definitely a possibility that's worth tracking. Maybe it's where Sanders is heading.
