The Cleveland Browns picked up a shocking upset victory over the Green Bay Packers on Sunday.
The Browns trailed 10-0 but scored the last 13 points unanswered. That included a game-tying touchdown from rookie RB Quinshon Judkins and then a game-winning field goal from Andre Szmyt.
They were quarterbacked the whole way by 40-year old Joe Flacco, but Shedeur Sanders was in uniform, as he has been the first two weeks, too.

Did Shedeur Sanders play today?
No, Shedeur Sanders didn't play in the Browns' comeback upset win over the Packers.
He was again designated as Cleveland's emergency QB, its No. 3 quarterback.
That's an official roster spot on gameday that means Sanders can't play unless both Flacco and QB2 Dillon Gabriel get injured.
Sanders has been the emergency quarterback each of the first three weeks of the season.
It seems likely he'll remain in that role at least until midseason.
If the Browns ever promote Gabriel to start, potentially on Oct. 19 in the first easy matchup in the near-term against the Miami Dolphins, maybe Sanders could be his direct backup, but that's not a given.
For now, Sanders will embrace his time playing on the scout team.
