Shedeur Sanders pushes back on questions about coaching decisions: 'Come on, man'

Cleveland Browns legend Joe Thomas shared his confidence in rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders, who has settled in after a tumultuous start to his career.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders scolded the media on Sunday after the team’s close loss to the Buffalo Bills at home.

The rookie faced questions from reporters about the Browns’ coaching decisions. Cleveland turned the ball over on downs with 5:08 left to go in the game and then elected to punt the ball with 1:55 left in the game. Both times, the Browns were only down three points.
