[WATCH] Myles Garrett stunned as Shedeur Sanders makes Browns' longest play of the season during debut game vs. Raiders

Shedeur Sanders got his first start for the Cleveland Browns in Week 12 against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday. The Browns' rookie quarterback made an impressive start, completing a 53-yard pass to wideout Isaiah Bond in the first quarter on a third-and-8 while in his own half.

The admirable feature of the play was that Sanders made the pass while being on the run, despite being pressured. Bond was taken down at the 2-yard line, but it was the Browns' longest play of the season, leaving defensive end Myles Garrett in awe.

Sanders got his first start of the season since fellow rookie Dillon Gabriel didn't clear the concussion protocols. However, it appears that Sanders is making the most of his opportunity in the early phase of the game.

At the time of writing, Cleveland holds a 14-0 lead over Las Vegas with 11:07 remaining in the second quarter.

Sanders made his Browns debut against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 11. He replaced the concussed Gabriel in the second half, but failed to make a strong impression.

Sanders completed four of 16 passes for 47 yards with an interception and was sacked twice against Baltimore. He had three carries for 16 yards, but the Browns lost 23-16.

Before taking the field for his first Browns start, Shedeur Sanders shared a warm embrace with his father, Deion Sanders.

Notably, Deion coached Shedeur throughout his four years at the collegiate level. The QB spent two years at Jackson State before transferring to Colorado in 2023, where he played for two seasons.

Deion is a two-time Super Bowl winner and a Hall of Famer.

The Browns entered their Week 12 game on the back of three straight losses. They will hope that Sanders at quarterback changes their fortunes.
